The three-disulfide inhibitor cystine knot (ICK) motif is a fold common to venom peptides from spiders, scorpions, and aquatic cone snails. Over a decade ago it was proposed that the ICK motif is an elaboration of an ancestral two-disulfide fold coined the disulfide-directed β-hairpin (DDH). Here we report the isolation, characterization, and structure of a novel toxin [U(1)-liotoxin-Lw1a (U(1)...

Abstract Nanoemulsion of S. pepper could control cabbage pests but optimization is needed for the composition because low toxicity. The purpose this research was to optimized nanoemulsion using citronella waste that increases stability and reduces size particle. insecticidal activity tested leaves residual method. experimental design used a completely Randomized Design (CRD) which consisted fiv...
