==ATRACOTOXIN-HVI FROM HADRONYCHE VERSUTA (AUSTRALIAN FUNNEL-WEB SPIDER, NMR, 20 STRUCTURES==
-
A family of potent insecticidal toxins has recently been isolated from the, venom of Australian funnel web spiders. Among these is the 37-residue, peptide omega-atracotoxin-HV1 (omega-ACTX-HV1) from Hadronyche versuta. We, have chemically synthesized and folded omega-ACTX-HV1, shown that it is, neurotoxic, ascertained its disulphide bonding pattern, and determined its, three-dimensional solution structure using NMR spectroscopy. The structure, consists of a solvent-accessible beta-hairpin protruding from a, disulphide-bonded globular core comprising four beta-turns. The three, intramolecular disulphide bonds from a cystine knot motif similar to that, seen in several other neurotoxic peptides. Despite limited sequence, identity, omega-ACTX-HV1 displays significant structural homology with the, omega-agatoxins and omega-conotoxins, both of which are vertebrate calcium, channel antagonists; however, in contrast with these toxins, we show that, omega-ACTX-HV1 inhibits insect, but not mammalian, voltage-gated calcium, channel currents.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TO1A_HADVE TO1A_HADVE] Reversibly and voltage-independently blocks both mid-low- (M-LVA) and high-voltage-activated (HVA) calcium channels in cockroach DUM neurons (PubMed:17610847). Is lethal to many insect species but not toxic to mammals (PubMed:9228949, PubMed:16779650). May target the insect high-voltage-activated calcium channel Dmca1D. Also inhibits acarines calcium channels. An extremely high toxin concentration partially inhibits Cav1.2/CACNA1C, Cav2.1/CACNA1A and Cav2.2/CACNA1B calcium channel of rats. As for omega-AcTx-Hv2a, the phenotypic effect of injection of this toxin into lone star ticks (Amblyomma americanum) is curling of all eight legs into closed loops.<ref>PMID:14608494</ref> <ref>PMID:15308644</ref> <ref>PMID:16330063</ref> <ref>PMID:17141372</ref> <ref>PMID:17610847</ref> <ref>PMID:9228949</ref>
