Abstract
⺠New pentapeptide KEILG from Tityus serrulatus venom is a EP24.15 inhibitor. ⺠A selective tool to differentiate EP 24.15 from EP24.16. ⺠Substitution of one residue affects the mechanism of inhibition. ⺠The sequence is homologue to the propeptide portion of βKTx. ⺠The presence of KEILG suggests a new processing of propeptides.
