Computational Insights of the Interaction among Sea Anemones Neurotoxins and Kv1.3 Channel

Sea anemone neurotoxins are peptides that interact with Na + and K + channels, resulting in specific alterations on their functions. Some of these neurotoxins (1ROO, 1BGK, 2K9E, 1BEI) are important for the treatment of about 80 autoimmune disorders because of their specificity for Kv1.3 channel. The...
