alpha6beta4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, but their functions are not fully understood, largely because of a lack of specific ligands. Here, we characterized a novel alpha-conotoxin, LvIC, and designed a series of analogues to probe structure-activity relationships at the alpha6beta4 nAChR. The potency and selectivity of these conotoxins were tested using two-electrode voltage-clamp recording on nAChR subtypes expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. One of the analogues, [D1G,DeltaQ14]LvIC, potently blocked alpha6/alpha3beta4 nAChRs (alpha6/alpha3 is a chimera) with an IC(50) of 19 nM, with minimal activity at other nAChR subtypes, including the structurally similar alpha6/alpha3beta2beta3 and alpha3beta4 subtypes. Using NMR, molecular docking, and receptor mutation, structure-activity relationships of [D1G,DeltaQ14]LvIC at the alpha6/alpha3beta4 nAChR were defined. It is a potent and specific antagonist of alpha6beta4 nAChRs that could potentially serve as a novel molecular probe to explore alpha6beta4 nAChR-related neurophysiological and pharmacological functions. | |||
