—Inter- and intraspecific variation in Conus venom composition. (A) Sequence alignments of a selection of highly expressed conotoxins, where putative orthologs were identified in all four Turriconus specimens (predicted mature peptides and their names are shown); cysteines are highlighted in yellow and differences in amino acids are shown in red. *Predicted C-terminal amidation. (B) Histograms of rbh pair counts versus percent sequence identity for all species analyzed in this study. The total number of rbh pairs is depicted on graphs.
