ELAPITOXIN-Ls2a (alpha-)
Product ID L8112-1MG 
Name ELAPITOXIN-Ls2a (alpha-) 
Molecular formula
Description

It is an antagonist of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor at the neuromuscular junction with a weaker affinity to the receptor than Erabutoxins a and b


66-amino acid peptide with 5 disulfide bridges , from Laticauda semifasciata snake venom
Biological activity

It is a nicotinic receptor antagonist, with a reversible binding to the receptor (its affinity is 1/40th that of Erabutoxin b).
Its binding to the acetylcholine receptors of Torpedo marmorata electric organs:
Kd = 1.6 x 10-9 M.
