Effect of Methionine Oxidation and Substitution of α-Conotoxin TxID on α3β4 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor

α-Conotoxin TxID was discovered from Conus textile by gene cloning, which has 4/6 inter-cysteine loop spacing and selectively inhibits α3β4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtype.
