The electronic structure and dipole moment of charybdotoxin, a scorpion venom peptide with K+ channel blocking activity [PDF]
Computational and Theoretical Chemistry 963 (2011) 384-393, 2010 The electronic structure of charybdotoxin (ChTX), a scorpion venom peptide that is known to act as a potassium channel blocker, is investigated with the aid of quantum mechanical calculations. The dipole moment vector (145 D) of ChTX can be stirred by the full length KcsA potassium channel's macrodipole (403 D) thereby assuming the proper orientation ...

Current Biology, 2009 The compounds that we recognize as toxins and venoms span an enormous diversity of pharmacological and ecological functions. The selection pressures driving the modification of venoms and toxins are fundamentally different from those of other proteins, and result in somewhat different evolutionary dynamics.
