8.B.39.1.1	Conotoxin im23.3 of 70 aas and 1 TMS. It is a neurotoxin that induces excitatory symptoms in mice following intracranial administration (Ye et al. 2012). The 3-d structure of a 42 aa seqence from a similar conotoxin, conotoxin im17.a from the same organism, has been solved (PDB acc# 2LMZ).		CoTx im23.3 of Conus imperialis
