Drosomycin, an Innate Immunity Peptide of Drosophila melanogaster, Interacts with the Fly Voltage-gated Sodium Channel

Several peptide families, including insect antimicrobial peptides, plant protease inhibitors, and ion channel gating modifiers, as well as blockers from scorpions, bear a common CSαβ scaffold. The high structural similarity between two peptides containing this scaffold, drosomycin and a truncated sc...
