Scorpion Toxins

Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales, 1997
Scorpion are known to use a cocktail of toxins to immobilize their prey. So, their venoms constitute a complex mixture of polypeptides exhibiting different pharmacological activities. These polypeptides are small (between 30 and 70 amino acids long), basic and highly reticulated (3 or 4 disulfide bridges).

SCORPION, a molecular database of scorpion toxins

Toxicon, 2002
Increasing interest in the studies of toxins and the requirements for better structural and functional annotations have created a need for improved data management in the field of toxins. The molecular database, SCORPION, contains more than 200 entries of fully referenced scorpion toxin data including primary sequences, three-dimensional structures ...

The antigenic structure of a scorpion toxin

Molecular Immunology, 1989
Scorpion toxins constitute a family of homologous proteins that exert potent pharmacological effects on ion channels. These proteins are immunogenic and constitute a good model for investigation of the molecular basis of antigenicity. In the first part of this article we summarize the results we have obtained in recent years concerning the location of ...

Radioiodination of scorpion and snake toxins

Analytical Biochemistry, 1977
Abstract Several scorpion and snake toxins were radioiodinated using the lactoperoxydase method of [125I]iodide oxidation. Two techniques of labeling were set up: (i) Using carrier-free Na125I and 5 μg of toxin, about one iodine atom was incorporated per mole of protein without loss of toxicity.

Southern African scorpion toxins: An overview

Toxicon, 2008
In southern Africa there are 130 species of scorpions and only a few species' venom have been investigated to date. This review gives an overview of the research done on the venom of southern African scorpions and the toxins and peptides identified up to date.
