Beta-bungarotoxin

Beta-bungarotoxin, a protein in cobra snake venom, also binds to cholinergic nerves to stop ACh release while a-bungarotoxin (from the same source) binds firmly to peripheral postsynaptic nicotinic receptors. The combined effect ensures the paralysis of the snake s victim. [Pg.121]
