- Background
- Alpha-conotoxin MI has been isolated from the venom of the cone snail Conus magus. This conotoxin acts on postsynaptic membranes. It binds onto and blocks nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). alpha-conotoxin MI blocks mammalian nAChR composed of alpha1/delta subunits with high potency and alpha1/gamma with low potency.
