Historical Perspective of the Characterization of Conotoxins Targeting Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels
Marine toxins have Media Stand potent actions on diverse sodium ion channels regulated by transmembrane voltage (voltage-gated ion channels) or by neurotransmitters (nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels).Studies of these toxins have focused on varied aspects of venom peptides ranging from evolutionary relationships of predator and prey, biolog
