PnIB (P00099) Protein Card

General Information
Name PnIB
Alternative name(s) PnMGMR-01,Pn1b
Organism Conus pennaceus
Organism region Indo-Pacific
Organism diet molluscivorous
Protein Type Wild type
Protein precursor PnIB precursor (36)
Notes The presence of a sulfotyrosine was discovered in 1999, while PnIB was isolated from the venom in 1994. There exists some confusion in the literature regarding the use of PnIB with sulfotyrosine or of a synthetic version without. See the card of PnIB [sTy15Y] for the activity data.
