Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a Chinese South China Sea signal cone snail M-superfamily toxin gene Lt3.1 and its encoded polypeptide sequence lt3a and the preparation technology of the polypeptide, and the use of the toxin in neurobiology research, ion channel drug and analgesic drug development in the application. Background technique
[0002] Cono snails belong to the mollusk phylum Gastropoda Conidae. Most of them live in shallow waters of tropical oceans, and a few live in deep waters with a water depth of several meters to more than 200 meters.
