Alpha-conotoxin IMI has been isolated from the venom of the cone snail Conus mperialis. Alpha-conotoxin IMI acts on postsynaptic membranes, and binds onto and inhibits nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). This toxin blocks mammalian neuronal nAChRs (Alpha3/Beta2 > Alpha7 > Alpha3/Beta4). It has no effect on nAChRs composed of Alpha2/Beta2, Alpha3/Beta2, Alpha4/Beta2, Alpha2/Beta4, Alpha3/Beta4, or Alpha4/Beta4 subunits. Alpha-conotoxins IMI acts independently of voltage value. This toxin is highly active against the neuromuscular receptor in frog.
