Diversity of Conopeptides and Conoenzymes from the Venom Duct of the Marine Cone Snail <i>Conus bayani</i> as Determined from Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analyses

Diversity of Conopeptides and Conoenzymes from the Venom Duct of the Marine Cone Snail <i>Conus bayani</i> as Determined from Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analyses

Marine cone snails are predatory gastropods characterized by a well-developed venom apparatus and highly evolved hunting strategies that utilize toxins to paralyze prey and defend against predators. The venom of each species of cone snail has a large number of pharmacologically active peptides known...
