TanP: A Multifunctional Anionic Peptide From Tityus stigmurus Scorpion Venom

Anionic peptides of scorpions are molecules rich in aspartic and/or glutamic acid residues and correspond to a class of peptides without disulfide bonds that are still little explored. TanP is a linear anionic peptide (50 amino acid residues and net charge −20) present in the venom gland of the scor...
