ω-agatoxin-IVA

ω-agatoxin-IVA – Ion Channels and Transporters ω-agatoxin-IVA (ω-AGA IVA) is a peptide originally isolated from funnel web-spider venom Agelenopsis aperta. This peptide is a specific blocker of P/Q-type calcium channel (Cav2.1). It has been reported that...

ρ-Da1a (AdTx1)

ρ-Da1a (AdTx1) – Ion Channels and Transporters AdTx1 (rho-Da1a – ρ-Da1a) is a 65 amino-acid peptide originally isolated from the venom of the green mamba, an African snake (Dendroaspis angusticep). AdTx1 is stabilized by four disulfide bridges and belongs to the...

μ-conotoxin-PIIIA

μ-conotoxin-PIIIA – Ion Channels and Transporters μ-Conotoxin PIIIA (mu-conotoxin PIIIA) is a conotoxin that has been isolated from the venom of the cone Conus purpurascens. μ-conotoxin PIIIA demonstrates a higher affinity for the mammalian muscle sodium channel...

β-Pompilidotoxin

β-Pompilidotoxin – Ion Channels and Transporters β-Pompilidotoxin was isolated from the venoms of two wasps, Anoplius amariensis and Batozonellus maculifrons. This short peptide slows the inactivation of neuronal sodium channels and does not affect cardiac...
