Addition of K22 Converts Spider Venom Peptide Pme2a from an Activator to an Inhibitor of Na(V)1.7

Spider venom is a novel source of disulfide-rich peptides with potent and selective activity at voltage-gated sodium channels (Na(V)). Here, we describe the discovery of μ-theraphotoxin-Pme1a and μ/δ-theraphotoxin-Pme2a, two novel peptides from the venom of the Gooty Ornamental tarantula Poecilother...
