Structure of α-conotoxin BuIA: influences of disulfide connectivity on structural dynamics

BACKGROUND: α-Conotoxins have exciting therapeutic potential based on their high selectivity and affinity for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. The spacing between the cysteine residues in α-conotoxins is variable, leading to the classification of sub-families. BuIA is the only α-conotoxin containi...
