== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/O17A_CONMA O17A_CONMA] Omega-conotoxins act at presynaptic membranes, they bind and block voltage-gated calcium channels. This toxin blocks Cav2.2/CACNA1B calcium channels (IC(50)=0.67-208 nM) (PubMed:26344359, PubMed:34589389, PubMed:7826361). It acts by neutralizing the outer electronegativity and sterically hindering the ion access path to the entrance of the channel selectivity filter (PubMed:34234349). It also shows antiproliferative effects on different glioma cell lines (M059J, U-138MG and U-251MG) (PubMed:28202361). In vivo, is lethal to fish (PubMed:26344359, PubMed:34589389). In vivo, injection into mammals induces adverse effects, such as tremor, diminution of spontaneous locomotor activity and bad coordinated locomotion (PubMed:26344359). In addition, it causes reduction of tumor area in the mouse glioma model, that is induced by the orthotopic injection of GL261 cells into the brain (PubMed:28202361).<ref>PMID:26344359</ref> <ref>PMID:34234349</ref> <ref>PMID:7826361</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Neurotransmitter release from preganglionic parasympathetic neurons is resistant to inhibition by selective antagonists of L-, N-, P/Q-, R-, and T-type calcium channels. In this study, the effects of different omega-conotoxins from genus Conus were investigated on current flow-through cloned voltage-sensitive calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes and nerve-evoked transmitter release from the intact preganglionic cholinergic nerves innervating the rat submandibular ganglia. Our results indicate that omega-conotoxin CVID from Conus catus inhibits a pharmacologically distinct voltage-sensitive calcium channel involved in neurotransmitter release, whereas omega-conotoxin MVIIA had no effect. omega-Conotoxin CVID and MVIIA inhibited depolarization-activated Ba(2+) currents recorded from oocytes expressing N-type but not L- or R-type calcium channels. High affinity inhibition of the CVID-sensitive calcium channel was enhanced when position 10 of the omega-conotoxin was occupied by the smaller residue lysine as found in CVID instead of an arginine as found in MVIIA. Given that relatively small differences in the sequence of the N-type calcium channel alpha(1B) subunit can influence omega-conotoxin access (Feng, Z. P., Hamid, J., Doering, C., Bosey, G. M., Snutch, T. P., and Zamponi, G. W. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 15728-15735), it is likely that the calcium channel in preganglionic nerve terminals targeted by CVID is a N-type (Ca(v)2.2) calcium channel variant.

Omega-conotoxin CVID inhibits a pharmacologically distinct voltage-sensitive calcium channel associated with transmitter release from preganglionic nerve terminals.,Adams DJ, Smith AB, Schroeder CI, Yasuda T, Lewis RJ J Biol Chem. 2003 Feb 7;278(6):4057-62.
