Analysis of venom gland transcriptomes from two Tesseliconus species, Conus eburneus and Conus tessulatus, reveals inter- and intra-specific variations in conopeptide diversity and expression as well as putative novel gene superfamilies and disulfide-poor venom components

The Conus subgenus Tesseliconus, whose members are believed to be primarily worm-hunters, phylogenetically clusters closely with piscivorous groups relative to most other vermivorous subgenera. A previous study even documented the Tesseliconus species C. tessulatus to opportunistically prey on fish....
