(Syn. : alpha-Conotoxin MI)
(Syn. : alpha-Conotoxin MI)
CONOTOXIN-MI (alpha-) | Product ID | L8505-500UG |
| Name | CONOTOXIN-MI (alpha-) |
| Molecular formula | C58H88N22O17S4 |
| Description |
A 14 amino-acids peptide with 2 disulfide bridges , synthetic, initially isolated from the venom of the Magical cone snail Conus magus. |
| Biological activity | α-conotoxin MI is a competitive antagonist of the muscle-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). It blocks mammalian nAChR composed of alpha-1/delta subunits with high potency and alpha-1/gamma with a low potency, allowing to distinguish between the two agonist sites as it binds 10,000-fold more tightly to the α/δ than to the α/γ site. |
