Alpha-conotoxins.

The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology, 2000
alpha-Conotoxins (alpha-CgTxs) are a family of Cys-enriched peptides found in several marine snails from the genus Conus. These small peptides behave pharmacologically as competitive antagonists of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR). The data indicate that (1) alpha-CgTxs are able to discriminate between muscle- and neuronal-type AChRs and ...

Conotoxin Venom Peptide Therapeutics

2009
Venom peptides offer enormous opportunity for the discovery of peptide drug leads. This review focusses on the potential of cone snails that have developed arrays of small peptides as part of highly evolved venoms used for prey capture and defence. Many of these peptides selectively modulate ion channels and transporters, making them a valuable source ...

Conotoxins and other conopeptides

2014
Conopeptides are a large family of peptide toxins produced by marine cone snails. They act with high potency and exquisite specificity on a range of ion channels and transporters of the nervous system, making them valuable drug leads and important molecular probes in neurophysiological studies.
