Animal’s venoms to improve human health, a new approach with promising results:
* After 30 months, 120 poisonous species have been collected, 90 of which have been analyzed by transcriptomics and 30 of them by proteomics
* 20,000 more sequences are expected to be gained at the end of the project, that would represent the greatest database of the existing toxins sequences so far
* The discovery of hundreds of peptides and proteins in the venom of only one poisonous species, opens multiple opportunities for pharmacological research
