Abstract: (Figure Presented) Building bridges: α-Conotoxins (C1-C3, C2-C4 disulfide pairing) adopt a globular conformation, whereas χ/λ- conotoxins (C1-C4, C2-C3 disulfide pairing) fold into a ribbon conformation. Amidation of the peptide C terminus has been shown to influence the folding (see picture) and hence the biological activity of conotoxins. © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
