Table 2   Comparison of the identified venomous proteins and their sequence sources in database of snake proteins

All sequence data from snake venoms, cobra and viper, are from NCBI and EBI. The information of species sources are provided by submitters.

Naja Shotgun-LC-MS/MS 78 70 (90%) 2 (2%) 6 (8%)
1DE-LC-MS/MS 65 57 (87%) 1 (1.5%) 7 (10.7%)
GF-LC-MS/MS 77 76 (98.7%) 1 (1.3%)
GF-2DE-MALDI–TOF-MS 16 5 (31%) 1 (6.3%) 10 (62.5%)
Agki Shotgun-LC-MS/MS 28 1 (3.5%) 26 (93%) 1 (3.5%)
