Role of Cys(I)–Cys(III) Disulfide Bond on the Structure and Activity of α-Conotoxins at Human Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

[Image: see text] α-Conotoxins preferentially antagonize muscle and neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Native α-conotoxins have two disulfide links, C(I)–C(III) and C(II)–C(IV), and owing to the inherent properties of disulfide bonds, α-conotoxins have been systematically engineere...
