An N‐Terminally Elongated Peptide From Conus rolani Defines a New Class of Ribbon α‐Conotoxins Targeting Muscle nAChRs

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 12, 30 June 2025.
α‐RoIA is an atypical N‐terminally elongated conotoxin discovered in Conus rolani. N‐terminal elongation delays activity in vivo; however, this elongation must be removed to block muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Only the truncated ribbon isoform of RoIA blocks muscle nAChRs.
