Peptide Toxins from Marine <i>Conus</i> Snails with Activity on Potassium Channels and/or Currents
Toxins from <i>Conus</i> snails are peptides characterized by a great structural and functional diversity. They have a high affinity for a wide range of membrane proteins such as ion channels, neurotransmitter transporters, and G protein-coupled receptors. Potassium ion channels are inte...
