 | Olivera, Baldomero M.; McIntosh, J. Michael | Novel post-translational modification involving bromination of tryptophan: identification of the residue, L-6-bromotryptophan, in peptides from Conus imperialis and Conus radiatus venom | We report a novel post-translational modification involving halogenation of tryptophan in peptides recovered from the venom of carnivorous marine cone snails (Conus). The residue, L-6-bromotryptophan, was identified in the sequence of a heptapeptide, isolated from Conus imperialis, a worm-hunting... | Conotoxins; Conus imperialis; Conus radiatus; L-6-bromotryptophan | 1997 |
