“…In this respect, the scorpion toxins charybdotoxin [69][70][71], scyllatoxin [72 ,73] and a-conotoxin [74] (Figure 1; Table 1), the cellulose-binding domain of cellulases [75,76], the insect defensin A [77] (secreted by certain larvae to attack bacterial membranes), and the Ecballium elaterium trypsin inhibitor II [78] have been used as scaffolds for generating new binding molecules. While the cellulose-binding domain and charybdotoxin were used to generate novel binding specificities via surface residue randomization and selection, the charybdotoxin and other scaffolds were also used in loop grafting studies with loops of defined sequence.…”
