Structure and Activity of α-Conotoxin PeIA at Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtypes and GABA(B) Receptor-coupled N-type Calcium Channels

α-Conotoxins are peptides from cone snails that target the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). RgIA and Vc1.1 have analgesic activity in animal pain models. Both peptides target the α9α10 nAChR and inhibit N-type calcium channels via GABA(B) receptor activation, but the mechanism of action of...
