We report a new, higher resolution NMR structure of alpha-bungarotoxin, that defines the structure-determining disulfide core and beta-sheet, regions. We further report the NMR structure of the stoichiometric complex, formed between alpha-bungarotoxin and a recombinantly expressed 19-mer, peptide ((178)IPGKRTESFYECCKEPYPD(196)) derived from the alpha7 subunit of, the chick neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. A comparison of these, two structures reveals binding-induced stabilization of the flexible tip, of finger II in alpha-bungarotoxin. The conformational rearrangements in, the toxin create an extensive binding surface involving both sides of the, alpha7 19-mer hairpin-like structure. At the contact zone, Ala(7), Ser(9), and Ile(11) in finger I and Arg(36), Lys(38), Val(39), and Val(40) in, finger II of alpha-bungarotoxin interface with Phe(186), Tyr(187), Glu(188), and Tyr(194) in the alpha7 19-mer underscoring the importance of, receptor aromatic residues as critical neurotoxin-binding determinants., Superimposing the structure of the complex onto that of the, acetylcholine-binding protein (1I9B), a soluble homologue of the, extracellular domain of the alpha7 receptor, places alpha-bungarotoxin at, the peripheral surface of the inter-subunit interface occluding the, agonist-binding site. The disulfide-rich core of alpha-bungarotoxin is, suggested to be tilted in the direction of the membrane surface with, finger II extending into the proposed ligand-binding cavity.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/3L21A_BUNMU 3L21A_BUNMU] Binds with high affinity to muscular (tested on Torpedo marmorata, Kd=0.4 nM) and neuronal (tested on chimeric alpha-7/CHRNA7, Kd=0.95 nM) nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) and inhibits acetylcholine from binding to the receptor, thereby impairing neuromuscular and neuronal transmission (PubMed:9305882). It also shows an activity on GABA(A) receptors (PubMed:16549768, PubMed:25634239). It antagonises GABA-activated currents with high potency when tested on primary hippocampal neurons (PubMed:25634239). It inhibits recombinantly expressed GABA(A) receptors composed of alpha-2-beta-2-gamma-2 (GABRA2-GABRB2-GABRG2) subunits with high potency (62.3% inhibition at 20 uM of toxin) (PubMed:25634239). It also shows a weaker inhibition on GABA(A) receptors composed of alpha-1-beta-2-gamma-2 (GABRA1-GABRB2-GABRG2) subunits, alpha-4-beta-2-gamma-2 (GABRA4-GABRB2-GABRG2) subunits, and alpha-5-beta-2-gamma-2 (GABRA5-GABRB2-GABRG2) subunits (PubMed:25634239). A very weak inhibition is also observed on GABA(A) receptor composed of alpha-1-beta-3-gamma-2 (GABRA1-GABRB3-GABRG2) (PubMed:26221036). It has also been shown to bind and inhibit recombinant GABA(A) receptor beta-3/GABRB3 subunit (Kd=about 50 nM) (PubMed:16549768). In addition, it blocks the extracellular increase of dopamine evoked by nicotine only at the higher dose (4.2 uM) (PubMed:9840221).<ref>PMID:16549768</ref> <ref>PMID:25634239</ref> <ref>PMID:9305882</ref> <ref>PMID:9840221</ref>
