Dynamic genetic differentiation drives the widespread structural and functional convergent evolution of snake venom proteinaceous toxins
BACKGROUND: The explosive radiation and diversification of the advanced snakes (superfamily Colubroidea) was associated with changes in all aspects of the shared venom system. Morphological changes included the partitioning of the mixed ancestral glands into two discrete glands devoted for productio...
