Abstract

A novel anti-mollusk conopeptide pn4c was isolated from theConus pennaceusvenom by repeated HPLC fractionation based on the activity against freshwater snails. The primary structure of pn4c was determined by the mass spectrometricde novosequencing analysis. In addition, pn3a was isolated from the same fraction containing pn4c, as a peptide with unknown functions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
