Next-generation technologies for determination of genomics and transcriptomics composition have a wide range of applications. Moreover, the development of tools for big data set analysis has allowed the identification of molecules and networks involved in metabolism, evolution or behavior. By natural habitats aquatic organisms have implemented molecular strategies for survival, including the production and secretion of toxic compounds for their predators; therefore these organisms are possible sources of proteins or peptides with potential biotechnological application. In the last decade anthozoans, mainly octocorals but also sea anemones, have been proben to be a source of natural products. Members of the genus are one of the best known and most studied sea anemones because they are common constituents of rocky intertidal communities and show interesting ecological and biological phenomena (e.g. intraespecific competition, symbiosis, etc.); however, many aspects of these taxa remain in need to be analyzed. This work describes the transcriptome sequencing of Verrill, 1869 (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Actiniaria); this is the first report of this kind for these species. The data set used to construct the transcriptome has been deposited on NCBI's database. Illumina sequence reads are available under BioProject accession number PRJNA329297 and Sequence Read Archive under accession number SRP078992.
用于确定基因组学和转录组学组成的新一代技术有着广泛的应用。此外，大数据集分析工具的发展使得参与新陈代谢、进化或行为的分子和网络得以识别。在自然栖息地中，水生生物实施了生存的分子策略，包括为其捕食者产生和分泌有毒化合物；因此，这些生物可能是具有潜在生物技术应用价值的蛋白质或肽的来源。在过去十年中，珊瑚虫纲动物，主要是八放珊瑚，但也包括海葵，已被证明是天然产物的一个来源。该属成员是最知名且研究最多的海葵之一，因为它们是岩岸潮间带群落的常见组成部分，并表现出有趣的生态和生物学现象（例如种内竞争、共生等）；然而，这些分类群的许多方面仍有待分析。这项工作描述了1869年的韦氏海葵（刺胞动物门：珊瑚虫纲：海葵目）的转录组测序；这是此类物种的首份报告。用于构建转录组的数据集已存于NCBI数据库。Illumina序列读数可在生物项目登录号PRJNA329297下获取，序列读数档案可在登录号SRP078992下获取。
