Putative calcium channel toxins found in <i>Vaejovis</i>.

<p>The peptide length (aa) always refers to the confirmed (when the peptide has been isolated from the venom) or software-predicted mature peptides. The given percentages of identity (%I) correspond to the mature peptides only, and refer to the first sequence. The predicted signal peptides are shown underlined, the propeptides in italics and bold. <b>A</b>) Sequence alignment of the three-disulfide-bridged putative calcinsVpCaTx1 from <i>V</i>. <i>punctatus</i> and ViCaTx1 from <i>V</i>. <i>intrepidus</i> with imperatoxin (UniProt:P59868) from <i>P</i>. <i>imperator</i>, maurocalcin (UniProt:P60254) from <i>S</i>. <i>maurus palmatus</i>, opicalcin-1 (UniProt:P60252) and opicalcin-2 (UniProt:P60253) from <i>Opistophthalmus carinatus</i>, UyCaTx20 (Calcium-channel toxin-like 20, UniProt:AGA82762) from <i>U</i>. <i>yaschenkoi</i> and hadrucalcin (UniProt:B8QG00) from <i>H</i>. <i>gertschi</i>. <b>B</b>) The precursors of the two-disulfide-bridged putative calcins VmCaTx1 and VmCaTx2 from <i>V</i>. <i>mexicanus</i> and VpCaTx2 from <i>V</i>. <i>punctatus</i>, are compared to previously reported sequences of their kind: LaIT1 (UniProt:P0C5F2) from <i>L</i>. <i>australasiae</i>, and U₁-LITX-Lw1a (UniProt:P0DJ08) from <i>L</i>. <i>waigiensis</i>.
