Multiple sequence alignment of denmotoxin reveals that the venom belongs to the family of non-conventional 3FTXs. Compared to conventional 3FTxs denmotoxins has 7 additional amino acids. The calculated mass of the protein is 8507.8 Da. Has <scene name='57/579702/Disulphides/2'>five disulphide bonds</scene>. Belongs to a family of non-conventional 3FTXs (3 finger toxins). Denmotoxin has 7 additional amino acid residues in its N-terminal when compared to other elapid 3FTXs; the N-terminus is also blocked by a pyroglutamic acid residue. There are two highly flexible regions on the protein: one at the tip of the central loop and one at the 3 first residues of the N-terminus. |
