Production of recombinant disulfide-rich venom peptides for structural and functional analysis via expression in the periplasm of E. coli.
Disulfide-rich peptides are the dominant component of most animal venoms. These peptides have received much attention as leads for the development of novel therapeutic agents and bioinsecticides because they target a wide range of neuronal receptors and ion channels with a high degree of potency and...
