Molecular Determinants of Species Specificity of α-Conotoxin TxIB towards Rat and Human α6/α3β4 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Conotoxins are widely distributed and important for studying ligand-gated ion channels. TxIB, a conotoxin consisting of 16 amino acids derived from Conus textile, is a unique selective ligand that blocks rat α6/α3β2β3 nAChR (IC(50) = 28 nM) without affecting other rat subtypes. However, when the act...
