α–RgIA, a Novel Conotoxin that Blocks the α9α10 nAChR: Structure and Identification of Key Receptor Binding Residues

α-Conotoxins are small disulfide-constrained peptides from cone snails which act as antagonists at specific subtypes of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The 13-residue peptide α-RgIA is a member of the α-4,3 family of α-conotoxins and selectively blocks the α9α10 nAChR subtype, in contras...
