alpha-conotoxinIMI(alphaconotoxinIMI)
詳情介紹:
Purpose | alpha-conotoxin IMI blocks nAChR |
Sequence | Gly-Cys2-Cys3-Ser-Asp-Pro-Arg-Cys8-Ala-Trp-Arg-Cys12-NH2Disulfide bonds between Cys2-Cys8 and Cys3-Cys12 |
Background | Alpha-conotoxin IMI has been isolated from the venom of the cone snail Conus mperialis. alpha-conotoxin IMI acts on postsynaptic membranes, and binds onto and inhibits nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). This toxin blocks mammalian neuronal nAChRs (alpha3/?2 > alpha7 > alpha3/?4). It has no effect on nAChRs composed of alpha2/?2, alpha3/?2, alpha4/?2, alpha2/?4, alpha3/?4, or alpha4/?4 subunits. alpha-conotoxins IMI acts independently of voltage value. This toxin is highly active against the neuromuscular receptor in frog. |
