Multi-omics characterization of toxin expression and producing organs in the predatory gastropods Monoplex corrugatus and Stramonita haemastoma
These findings underscore the value of multi-omics approaches for toxin discovery and for investigating the complexity of gastropod venom evolution and expand our understanding of how venom systems evolve and diversify in marine snails, highlighting both shared and unique toxin strategies that may reflect different ecological adaptations.
