Evolution Stings: The Origin and Diversification of Scorpion Toxin Peptide Scaffolds
The episodic nature of natural selection and the accumulation of extreme sequence divergence in venom-encoding genes over long periods of evolutionary time can obscure the signature of positive Darwinian selection. Recognition of the true biocomplexity is further hampered by the limited taxon select...
