Title New family of conotoxins that block voltage-gated sodium channels
Date 1995
Description Conus peptides, including ω-conotoxins and α-conotoxins (targeting calcium channels and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, respectively) have been useful ligands in neuroscience. In this report, we describe a new family of sodium channel ligands, the μO-conotoxins.
