Model of venom regulatory network. (A) Hypothesis regulatory network that controls venom regulation through high-level regulatory action of ERK signaling. Red arrows indicate enhancer–promoter interactions. (B) Illustration of hypothesized positive-feedback loop in which venom production activates the UPR, which in turn increases venom production through up-regulation and binding of UPR TFs that target VGs (red arrows).
