Classification of scorpion toxins according to amino acid composition and sequence.

M J Dufton, H Rochat.   

Abstract

Scorpion venom toxins were systematically classified according to amino acid composition, insertion/deletion events and sequence. The significance of each comparison method and its outcome is discussed in relation to known immunological and structural properties. A general classification of the toxins is proposed that accounts for both the immunological groupings and the differences in mode of action.
