Improving the Annotation of the Venom Gland Transcriptome of <i>Pamphobeteus verdolaga</i>, Prospecting Novel Bioactive Peptides

Spider venoms constitute a trove of novel peptides with biotechnological interest. Paucity of next-generation-sequencing (NGS) data generation has led to a description of less than 1% of these peptides. Increasing evidence supports the underestimation of the assembled genes a single transcriptome as...
