Because nAChRs have an important role in regulating transmitter release, cell excitability, and neuronal integration, nAChR dysfunctions have been implicated in a variety of severe pathologies such as epilepsy, myasthenic syndromes, schizophrenia, Parkinson disease, and Alzheimer disease. To expand the knowledge concerning cone snail toxins, we examined the venom of <em>Conus longurionis.</em> We isolated an 18-amino acid peptide named a-conotoxin Lo1a, which is active on nAChRs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first characterization of a conotoxin from this species. The peptide was characterized by electrophysiological screening against several types of cloned nAChRs expressed in <em>Xenopus laevis</em> oocytes. The three-dimensional solution structure of the a-conotoxin Lo1a was determined by NMR spectroscopy. Lo1a, a member of the a4/7 family, blocks the response to acetylcholine in oocytes expressing a<sub>7</sub> nAChRs with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 3.24 ± 0.7 µ<span class=\"sc\">m</span>. Furthermore, Lo1a shows a high selectivity for neuronal <em>versus</em> muscle subtype nAChRs. Because Lo1a has an unusual C terminus, we designed two mutants, Lo1a-?D and Lo1a-RRR, to investigate the influence of the C-terminal residue. Lo1a-?D has a C-terminal Asp deletion, whereas in Lo1a-RRR, a triple-Arg tail replaces the Asp. They blocked the neuronal nAChR a<sub>7</sub> with a lower IC<sub>50</sub> value, but remarkably, both adopted affinity for the muscle subtype a<sub>1</sub>ß<sub>1</sub>d?.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Structure-function elucidation of a new alpha-conotoxin, Lo1a, from <i>Conus longurionis</i>","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Alzheimer Disease; Electrophysiology; Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors;NMR; Protein Engineering; Schizophrenia; Conotoxin; ConotoxinStructure-Function Relationship","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2014,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-07-04","DateCreate":"2014-06-19","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000333807000013","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1074/jbc.M114.556175"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":239222,"PubliDate":2014,"Pagination":"9573-9583","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"289","Issue":"14","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43206,"SerRR":"Journal of Biological Chemistry.
