One of the ADDovenom project’s key deliverables was the production of a publicly available annotated toxin database, containing analysis of nine African snake venoms.
The database is now available on our website, following publication of a new paper, led by the team at University of Liège with input from University of Bristol and LSTM:

The database includes proteotranscriptomic data; post-translational modification; and relative quantification for the following snakes:
- Dendroaspis polylepis
- Echis ocellatus
- Echis leucogaster
- Echis coloratus
- Echis pyramidum leakeyi
- Dendroaspis viridis
- Dendroaspis angusticeps
- Dendroaspis jamesonii jamesonii
- Dendroaspis jamesonii kaimosae
