Snake toxins that bind specifically to individual subtypes of muscarinic receptors

This paper discusses the properties of the three most specific ligands found for the extracellular faces of M1, M2 and M4 muscarinic receptors (m1-toxin1, m2-toxin and m4-toxin, respectively). The primary goal of this paper is to show the known and potential usefulness of these toxins and their biotinylated, radioactive, fluorescent and mutated derivatives.
