Structure-Activity Relationship of Chlorotoxin-Like Peptides
Animal venom (e.g., scorpion) is a rich source of various protein and peptide toxins with diverse physio-/pharmaco-logical activities, which generally exert their action via target-specific modulation of different ion channel functions.

Old dog, new trick: Charybdotoxin as a novel ryanodine receptor blocker
Abstract figure legend The peptide toxin charybdotoxin (ChTx) from the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus was tested on single‐channel currents of the ryanodine receptor incorporated into planar lipid bilayers. The structure–function relationship of ChTx was investigated using toxin variants generated by isosteric substitutions of the basic amino acids ...

Transcriptome annotation and characterization of novel toxins in six scorpion species
Background Venom has evolved in parallel in multiple animals for the purpose of self-defense, prey capture or both. These venoms typically consist of highly complex mixtures of toxins: diverse bioactive peptides and/or proteins each with a specific ...

Molecular Analysis of Voltage-gated a-Na+ Channel Toxin Binding Site 3 to Determine Key Residues that Confer Resistance to a-scorpion Toxin [PDF]
Voltage-gated Na+ channels (Nav1.2) which are proteins that posses 4 (I-IV) domains and six transmembrane (S1-S6) helices in each domain display abnormally slowed fast inactivation when an ?-scorpion toxin binds to it. However, voltage gated Na+ channels
