TABLE 1.

Putative KTx precursors identified in M. eupeus transcriptome

Sequences were classified into 30 subfamilies according to their amino acid sequence similarity. The most similar sequences of known KTxs from this or other scorpions are included in each group for comparison. Predicted signal peptides are underlined. Dotted lines indicate alternative signal peptide processing. Prosequences are in italics. Differences are shaded. ○, peptides identified in this work; ▴, previously; and ●, previously and in this work.
