Target Category | Peptide |
Target | α-Amanitin |
Target Overview | α-Amanitin (alpha-Amanitin)is a cyclic peptide of eight amino acids. It is possibly the most deadly of all the amatoxins, toxins found in several species of the mushroom genus Amanita, one being the death cap (Amanita phalloides) as well as the destroying angel, a complex of similar species, principallyA. virosa and A. bisporigera. |
