Zancolli, @marcrr.bsky.social @agneeshbarua.bsky.social et al. show that venom glands in marine predatory snails evolved via functional divergence from digestive organs, involving gene expression shifts and enhanced secretory machinery.

This is a flat grey image with cell structures in darker grey. Some of the cells are coloured and shown in green boxes. This image - Segmentation of electron microscopy images with μSAM - shows how the model can segment nuclei, with points and boxes from the user and the corresponding masks predicted by the model. Photo: The underlying image comes from data published in Cell (S0092-8674(21)00876-X). Image created by Anwai Archit using the μSAM tool.
This is a three dimensional representation with a cross-section showing dark patches in different colours and the outside of the structure with bright different colours (green, purple, blue, dark pink, yellow, orange). The image shows plant cells acquired with a fluorescence microscope that were segmented automatically with the model. The underlying data is three-dimensional and the image shows a rendering of the segmented cells, each represented by a different colour. Image from: Nature Methods: s41592-021-01249-6
