Abstract
•Anochetus emarginatus venom is mostly composed of disulfide-linked peptides.•U1-PONTX-Ae1a is a novel disulfide-linked peptide toxin with a unique 3D scaffold.•U1-PONTX-Ae1a has a β-hairpin motif with two antiparallel strands.•U1-PONTX-Ae1a reversibly paralyzes blowflies.•U1-PONTX-Ae1a inhibits human L-type voltage-gated calcium channels.
