Two new studies on snake venom glands have implications for improved anti-venom development. One describes the de novo assembly of an Indian cobra reference genome and venom gland transcriptome; the other describes the derivation of snake venom gland organoids.

🐍 Snakebites cause more than 120,000 deaths a year.

It shouldn't have to be this way.

Here's why decoding the Indian Cobra's genome could revolutionise #snakebite treatments 🧬👉 https://t.co/Sy2ZoSuCp3

@Giulia97557761 Hi there, we've submitted the annotation and it's currently being validated/processed. Thanks for your patience!
The genome can be found here: https://t.co/lGqNz69lRN

Each year, about 46,000 people die and 140,000 people are disabled in India from snakebites by the ‘Big 4’ — the Indian cobra, the common krait, Russell’s viper, and the saw-scaled viper. #Snakes #Genome #Cobra #Venom

Scientists have mapped the Indian #cobra's genome, hopefully making it easier to produce #antivenom. https://t.co/0zeHsTw83o @NatureGenet #snakebite #NTDs #beatNTDs

Genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics can help accelerate efforts to modernize the production of safe and cost-effective antivenom.
