Characterization and Chemical Synthesis of Cm39 (α-KTx 4.8): A Scorpion Toxin That Inhibits Voltage-Gated K(+) Channel K(V)1.2 and Small- and Intermediate-Conductance Ca(2+)-Activated K(+) Channels K(Ca)2.2 and K(Ca)3.1
A novel peptide, Cm39, was identified in the venom of the scorpion Centruroides margaritatus. Its primary structure was determined. It consists of 37 amino acid residues with a MW of 3980.2 Da. The full chemical synthesis and proper folding of Cm39 was obtained. Based on amino acid sequence alignmen...
