Function
3SDC7_OPHHA Acts as a beta-blocker by binding to beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors (ADRB1 and ADRB2). It dose-dependently decreases the heart rate (bradycardia), whereas conventional cardiotoxins increases it. At 100 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection into mice provokes labored breathing, impaired locomotion, lack of response to external stimuli, and death (after 30 min).[1]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
beta-Cardiotoxin is a novel member of the snake venom three-finger toxin (3FTX) family. This is the first exogenous protein to antagonize beta-adrenergic receptors and thereby causing reduction in heart rates (bradycardia) when administered into animals, unlike the conventional cardiotoxins as reported earlier. 3FTXs are stable all beta-sheet peptides with 60-80 amino acid residues. Here, we describe the three-dimensional crystal structure of beta-cardiotoxin together with the identification of a molten globule intermediate in the unfolding pathway of this protein. In spite of the overall structural similarity of this protein with conventional cardiotoxins, there are notable differences observed at the loop region and in the charge distribution on the surface, which are known to be critical for cytolytic activity of cardiotoxins. The molten globule intermediate state present in the thermal unfolding pathway of beta-cardiotoxin was however not observed during the chemical denaturation of the protein. Interestingly, circular dichroism (CD) and NMR studies revealed the presence of alpha-helical secondary structure in the molten globule intermediate. These results point to substantial conformational plasticity of beta-cardiotoxin, which might aid the protein in responding to the sometimes conflicting demands of structure, stability, and function during its biological lifetime.
