“Protein space” of small peptidic aculeatan toxins as revealed by machine learning analysis and their genomic position in respect to each other. A Combined data of available verified toxin sequences from Robinson et al., and the present study (including ToxProt part of the UniProt) for all peptidic toxins, on the left coloured by protein family, on the right—coloured by taxa. B Data from Robinson et al., on the left sequences with signal peptide included, on the right only mature peptides. For the interactive plots see Additional file 11. C Schematic of genomic position of the three groups of hymenopteran toxins. Coloured rectangles represent regions of microsynteny: pink for melittin, orange for mastoparan and green for poneratoxins.
