In Vivo Evaluation of the Chronic Oral Toxicity of the Marine Toxin Palytoxin [PDF]
Toxins, 2020 Palytoxin (PLTX) is one of the most poisonous substances known to date and considered as an emergent toxin in Europe. Palytoxin binds to the Na+-K+ ATPase, converting the enzyme in a permeant cation channel.

Computational Studies of Marine Toxins Targeting Ion Channels [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2013 Toxins from marine animals offer novel drug leads for treatment of diseases involving ion channels. Computational methods could be very helpful in this endeavour in several ways, e.g., (i) constructing accurate models of the channel-toxin complexes using

Modelling the Stoichiometric Regulation of C-Rich Toxins in Marine Dinoflagellates. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Toxin production in marine microalgae was previously shown to be tightly coupled with cellular stoichiometry. The highest values of cellular toxin are in fact mainly associated with a high carbon to nutrient cellular ratio.
