CC   -!- FUNCTION: Alpha-conotoxins act on postsynaptic membranes, they bind to
CC       the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and thus inhibit them.
CC       This toxin specifically blocks mammalian neuronal nAChR of the alpha-
CC       7/CHRNA7, alpha-3-beta-2/CHRNA3-CHRNB2 and alpha-4-beta-2/CHRNA4-CHRNB2
CC       subtypes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Hetero-, homo- or pseudo-homodimers (identical sequence,
CC       different post-translational modifications) (By similarity).
CC       Heterodimer of [carboxy'Glu-48', hydroxy'Pro-54']Ms20.1 and
CC       [carboxyGlu-50, hydroxyPro-56]Ms20.4 may exist. {ECO:0000250,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:19275168}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom duct.
CC   -!- DOMAIN: The cysteine framework is XX (C-CC-C-CC-C-C-C-C).
CC   -!- PTM: Contains 5 disulfide bonds. {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the conotoxin D superfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
