Alpha-Bungarotoxin (α-BGT) is a nicotinic cholinergic antagonist that is found within the venom of ''Bungarus multicinctus'', a South-asian snake commonly known as kraits. α-BGT is known to bind irreversibly to the acetylcholine receptor found at the neuromuscular junction, causing respiratory failure, paralysis, and death, as well as play an antagonstic role in binding the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the brain. | Alpha-Bungarotoxin (α-BGT) is a nicotinic cholinergic antagonist that is found within the venom of ''Bungarus multicinctus'', a South-asian snake commonly known as kraits. α-BGT is known to bind irreversibly to the acetylcholine receptor found at the neuromuscular junction, causing respiratory failure, paralysis, and death, as well as play an antagonstic role in binding the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the brain. | ||
