From: Integrated “omics” profiling indicates that miRNAs are modulators of the ontogenetic venom composition shift in the Central American rattlesnake, Crotalus simus simus

Figure 5

Distribution of miRNAs in newborn and adult venom gland transcriptomes. Left, uneven distribution of the number of miRNAs identified in the venom gland transcriptomes of newborn (upper panel) and adult (lower panel). The red line marks the 1000 copy threshold. Right, Comparison of highly expressed (>1000 counts) venom gland miRNAs in newborn (upper panel) and adult (lower panel) C. s. simus datasets. Bars corresponding to miRNAs shared between newborn and adult transcriptomes are filled with the same color. For details of the expression profile of highly expressed miRNAs in the venom gland transcriptome, and their newborn to adult expression ratios, please consult Tables S4 and S5 (Additional File 1).
