α-Conotoxin MII of 68 aas and 1 TMS. A number of conopeptides have been developed as analgesics for the treatment of neuropathic pain (Alonso et al. 2003). The 3-d structure has been determined (2AJW_A) (Turner et al. 2009).

α-Conαotoxin Qc alphaL-1 of 68 aas and 1 TMS.  Alpha-conotoxins act on postsynaptic membranes, binding to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and thus inhibiting them. This toxin has 3 cysteine residues in the mature peptide.

α-Conotoxin LvIA of 37 aas and 1 TMS.  This toxin blocks alpha-3-beta-2/CHRNA3-CHRNB2 nAChR with high selectivity (IC50=8.7 nM (on rat) and 17.5 (on human)) (Luo et al. 2014). An alpha 4/7-Conotoxin LvIF from Conus lividus selectively blocks alpha3beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (Guo et al. 2021). The cryoEM structures are available (5XGL).

Alpha conotoxin GIC of 40 aas and 1 TMS. This toxin reversibly blocks neuronal nAChRs (alpha-3/beta-2 = alpha-6 or -3/beta-2 or -3 > alpha-3/beta-4 = alpha-4/beta-2) (McIntosh et al. 2002).

Alpha-conotoxin PIVA of 68 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS. This α-conotoxin acts on postsynaptic membranes, binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and inhibiting them. This toxin has higher affinity for the adult subtype (alpha-1/beta-1/gamma/delta subunits) of the receptor than for the fetal subtype (alpha-1/beta-1/epsilon/delta subunits) (Teichert et al. 2006).

Conotoxin BuIA of 60 aas and 2 TMSs, N- and C-terminal. Alpha-conotoxins bind to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and inhibit them (Shiembob et al. 2006). alpha3beta2 nAChR neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are pentamers composed of alpha and beta subunits.

PeIVB α-conotoxin of 18 aas. This toxin selectively binds to the fetal (alpha-1/beta-1/gamma/delta subunits) mammalian muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and blocks the elicited currents completely and dissociates very slowly from the fetal muscle receptor (Teichert et al. 2006).

PIVE conotoxin of 24 aas. This toxin elicits dose-dependent excitatory activity upon injection into fish. Its action is slowly reversible. It does not have effects on the fish potassium channels, TSha1, TSha2 (Kv1 homologs), and Traw (Kv3 homolog) (Teichert et al. 2007).
