Chemical Synthesis, Proper Folding, Na<sub>v</sub> Channel Selectivity Profile and Analgesic Properties of the Spider Peptide Phlotoxin 1
Phlotoxin-1 (PhlTx1) is a peptide previously identified in tarantula venom (<i>Phlogius</i> species) that belongs to the inhibitory cysteine-knot (ICK) toxin family. Like many ICK-based spider toxins, the synthesis of PhlTx1 appears particularly challenging, mostly for obtaining appropri...
