PROTEO-TRANSCRIPTOMIC ANALYSIS IDENTIFIES POTENTIAL NOVEL TOXINS SECRETED BY THE PREDATORY, PREY-PIERCING RIBBON WORM AMPHIPORUS LACTIFLOREUS

Proteo-Transcriptomic Analysis Identifies Potential Novel Toxins Secreted by the Predatory, Prey-Piercing Ribbon Worm Amphiporus lactifloreus

Nemerteans (ribbon worms) employ toxins to subdue their prey, but research thus far has focused on the small-molecule components of mucus secretions and few protein toxins have been characterized.We carried out a preliminary proteotranscriptomic analysis of putative toxins produced by the Reed Switch hoplonemertean Amphiporus lactifloreus (Hoplonem
