A comparative analysis of toxin gene families across diverse sea anemone species

2024-12-20

Abstract excerpt

All species from order Actiniaria (sea anemones) are venomous, even though most are of no threat to humans. Currently, we know very little about the toxin gene complement of highly venomous members of this order. To address this gap in knowledge, we sequenced the transcriptome of the highly venomous and medically significant Hell’s Fire sea anemone, Actinodendron plumosum , as well as five distantly related speci...
