Definition of a saxitoxin (STX) binding code enables discovery and characterization of the anuran saxiphilin family
American bullfrog (Rana castesbeiana) saxiphilin (RcSxph) is a high-affinity “toxin sponge” protein thought to prevent intoxication by saxitoxin (STX), a lethal bis-guanidinium neurotoxin that causes paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) by blocking voltage-gated sodium channels (Na(V)s). How specific...
