“…By introducing multiple disulfide bridges into short peptide sequences, nature has devised a unique class of biologically active molecules that are able to adopt well‐defined three‐dimensional structures because of the conformational stability conferred by these disulfide bridges. These highly potent and specific toxins, found in the venom of cone snails,4 spiders,5 scorpions,6 snakes,7 and lizards,8 target the ion channels9 and cell‐surface receptors in the neurological system, which results in reduced or blocked neurotransmission and causes paralysis and sometimes death. These neurotoxins have become interesting as biological probes and drug discovery leads10–15 because ion channels in particular are crucial to many biological processes, such as nerve transmission, hormone secretion, and the generation of cellular energy 16.…”
