Figure 10.

Qualitative contribution of the most prevalent toxin families in the snake venom composition of B. atrox is displayed in the inner pie chart. Individual toxins found per toxin family are displayed in the outer pie chart. Qualitative relative abundances are deduced from the qualitative data-dependent analyses performed in the HT venomics approach and do not represent real relative toxin abundances quantitatively. Abbreviations stand for the different toxin families. SVSP: snake venom serine proteinase, LAAO: L-amino acid oxidase, PLA₂: basic phospholipase A₂, snaclec: snake venom C-Type lectin, and SVMP: snake venom zinc metalloproteinase. The unique toxins belonging to their respective toxin family shown on the outer pie chart are displayed using their Uniprot protein codes (i.e., resulting from Uniprot database searches by MASCOT). The pie chart was generated using protein scores of toxins with an abundance of >1% in the snake venom and grouping them according to toxin families in Excel and PowerPoint.
