The fold diversity of scorpion venom components. (A) Representative structure of three different types of peptides: MMTX (PDB: 2RTZ) (CSαβ fold), λ-MeuTx-1 (ICK fold) [7], and the α-helical Meucin-24 (PDB: 2KFE); (B) Representative structures of scorpion venom-derived proteases and protease inhibitors: The chymotrypsin-like protease MmChTP whose structure was modelled on SWISS-MODEL (www.expasy.org) using the template of a mannose-binding lectin-associated serine proteinase-3 (PDB: 4KKD); the Kunitz-type protease inhibitor LmKTT-1a (PDB: 2M01).
