Sea Anemone Toxins: A Structural Overview

Sea Anemone Toxins: A Structural Overview

Sea anemones produce venoms of exceptional molecular diversity, with at least 17 different molecular scaffolds reported to date. These venom components have traditionally been classified according to pharmacological activity and amino acid sequence. However, this classification system suffers from v...
