Tarantula toxins use common surfaces for interacting with Kv and ASIC ion channels

Tarantula toxins use common surfaces for interacting with Kv and ASIC ion channels

Tarantula toxins that bind to voltage-sensing domains of voltage-activated ion channels are thought to partition into the membrane and bind to the channel within the bilayer. While no structures of a voltage-sensor toxin bound to a channel have been solved, a structural homolog, psalmotoxin (PcTx1),...
