The Indian cobra genome comprises 38 chromosomes (2n) totaling 1.79 Gb with a GC content of ~40% and repeat content of 43%. The near-chromosomal assembly is highly contiguous with 95% of the genome represented by 19 large scaffolds that correspond to its chromosomes. The largest scaffold at ~375 Mb spans the entire chromosome 1. The genome codes for 23 248 predicted proteins and includes 139 venom toxins that target multiple physiological processes (Figure 1).
