BmK-YA, an enkephalin-like peptide in scorpion venom. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 By screening extracts of venom from the Asian scorpion Buthus martensii Karsch (BmK) for their abilities to activate opioid receptors, we have identified BmK-YA, an amidated peptide containing an enkephalin-like sequence. BmK-YA is encoded by a precursor
