Target

IC50: 187 nM (nicotinic acetylcholine α1β1γδ receptor)[3]

In Vitro α-Conotoxin EI (10 µM) blocks muscle and ganglionic receptors, but less potent for the central nevous system receptor[3]. α-Conotoxin EI (10 µM) blocks the α1β1γδ receptors with a τon of 4.9 s, and blocks the α3β4 receptor with a τon of 11 s[3].
In Vivo α-Conotoxin EI (intraperitoneal injection) into mice induces muscular weakness, followed by flaccid paralysis and ultimately death[1].
