| UniProt functional annotation for B2KPN7 | |||
| UniProt code: B2KPN7. |
| Organism: | Conus marmoreus (Marble cone). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Spiralia; Lophotrochozoa; Mollusca; Gastropoda; Caenogastropoda; Neogastropoda; Conoidea; Conidae; Conus; Conus. | |
| Function: | May act as a neurotoxin. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18355315}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed by the venom duct. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18355315}. | |
| Ptm: | The D-phenylalanine is essential to the structural conformation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18355315}. | |
| Ptm: | Since conomarphin is a cysteine-free peptide, hydroxyproline plays a critical role in maintaining a restricted conformation of the peptide. | |
| Miscellaneous: | The mature peptide does not contain cysteine residues. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | The amino acid sequence of conomarphin is identical to that of C.imperialis Im-conomarphin (AC P0CH39). Their nucleotide sequences are not identical. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the conotoxin M superfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
