Cytotoxicity of linear venom peptides (100 µM in the assay) from the ants M. rubra and M. ruginodis. Cytotoxicity was measured using the CellTiter-Glo assay to determine the viability of MDCK II cells. The cytotoxicity of the 10 novel peptides (identified by their short names) was determined in triplicate and compared with untreated cells and cells treated with DMSO and ionomycin as controls. Values were normalized to the DMSO control. Boxplots indicate 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 percentiles with 1.5 interquartile range.
