From: Comparative venom gland transcriptome analysis of the scorpion Lychas mucronatus reveals intraspecific toxic gene diversity and new venomous components

Figure 3

Relative proportion of each category of total transcripts from the venom gland library of two Lychas mucronatus populations. "Neurotoxins" includes transcripts encoding putative toxins specific for potassium channels from α and β-families, toxins specific for sodium channels and calcines against ryanodine receptors. "AMPs" includes Scamp, Ponericin-like peptides, bpp like, Glycine-rich peptides, and Anionic peptides. "Other toxin-like peptides" includes LVPs, PLA2, La1-like peptides, SPSV and so on. "Gene products implicated in common cellular processes" includes transcripts encoding for proteins involved in cellular processes. "Unknown function" includes ESTs similar with already described sequences with no functional assessment. "No ORF" includes sequences with non-identified open reading frame. "No match" includes ESTs having no homologous sequences in GenBank NCBI database. (A) Relative proportion of each category of total transcripts from the venom gland library of Hainan-sourced Lychas mucronatus. (B) Relative proportion of each category of total transcripts from the venom gland library of Yunnan-sourced Lychas mucronatus.
