A transcriptome analysis of the Scorpiops jendeki venom gland has highlighted a number of venom peptides which may help drug development and aid our understanding of how the scorpion evolved its venom arsenal.
The puma software suite is a freely available, unified Bioconducter package for propagating uncertainty in microarray analysis, giving improved performance compared to more traditional methods of differential expression detection, principal component analysis and clustering.
