Draft genome sequences of Hirudo medicinalis and salivary transcriptome of three closely related medicinal leeches

Abstract Background Salivary cell secretion (SCS) plays a critical role in blood feeding by medicinal leeches, making them of use for certain medical purposes even today. Results We annotated the Hirudo medicinalis genome and performed RNA-seq on salivary cells isolated from three closely related le...
