Application
ω-Conotoxin GVIA has been used as an antagonist for N-type calcium channel (CaV2.2) in various studies.
Powerful probe for exploring the vertebrate pre-synaptic terminal.
Biochem/physiol Actions
ω-Conotoxin GVIA is a 27 amino acid neurotoxin containing three disulfide bonds. It inhibits central neurotransmitter release and also exhibits antihypertensive, analgesic and neuroprotective activities.
Blocks specific voltage-dependent N-type Ca2+ channels in neurons, but not in muscle; does not bind to either the dihydropyridine or verapamil binding sites; peptide first isolated from the marine snail Conus geographus L.
