Cvill6 and Cvill7: Potent and Selective Peptide Blockers of Kv1.2 Ion Channel Isolated from Mexican Scorpion <i>Centruroides villegasi</i>
Scorpion venoms are a rich source of peptides that modulate the activity of ion channels and can serve as a new drug for channelopathies. Cvill6 and Cvill7 are two new peptides isolated from the venom of <i>Centruroides villegasi</i> with MW of 4277 Da and 4287 Da and they consist of 38...
