CC -!- FUNCTION: Alpha-conotoxins act on postsynaptic membranes, they bind to
CC the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and thus inhibit them (By
CC similarity). Has a distinct nAChR binding mode from other alpha-
CC conotoxins, due to a different three residue motif (Ala-Xaa-Ala instead
CC of the conserved Ser-Xaa-Pro motif) (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q2I2R8}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16908117}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom duct.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16908117}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The cysteine framework is I (CC-C-C). Alpha4/7 pattern.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the conotoxin A superfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Conotoxins Lt1.1 and Lt1.2 are the same protein. They possess
CC a different name due to their different precursors. {ECO:0000305}.
