Funded Activity Summary

Novel conotoxins that target ion channels and receptors. This project will discover peptides from cone snail venom that are potential drug candidates. The project will expand our knowledge of these biological active peptides and their mode of action. It will also protect key molecules through patent applications, providing a competitive edge for Australian biotechnology.
