Role of the disulfide bond on the structure and activity of μ-conotoxin PIIIA in the inhibition of Na(V)1.4

μ-Conotoxin PIIIA, a peptide toxin isolated from Conus purpurascens, blocks the skeletal muscle voltage-gated sodium channel Na(V)1.4 with significant potency. PIIIA has three disulfide bonds, which contribute largely to its highly constrained and stable structure. In this study, a combination of ex...
