IPR036574

Description

IPR036574 is a Knottin, scorpion toxin-like superfamily.

<p>Knottins are small proteins characterised by a cystine-knot [[cite:PUB00077056]]. They constitute a large family of structurally related peptides with diverse biological functions, including inhibitors, anti-microbial peptides and toxins [[cite:PUB00077058]]. Their structure is composed of a disulfide-bound fold and contains β-hairpin with two adjacent disulfides.</p> <p>The scorpion toxin-like domain is found in a subgroup of metazoan knottins mainly from the arthropoda, which include the antibacterial defensins [[cite:PUB00000384]] and the scorpion alpha-neurotoxins [[cite:PUB00022373], [cite:PUB00095172]]. The plant sequences include members of the gamma-thionin family, which are plant defensins that have no antifungal activity. Other members are insect alpha-amylase inhibitors, cysteine-rich antifungal proteins and proteins annotated as proteinase inhibitors; those that are characterised belong to MEROPS inhibitor family I18, clan I.</p>
