The alpha/beta scorpion fold is shared by scorpion toxins, insect defensins, and plant thionins.

With the view to introduce novel functional centers within this fold, we replaced the sequence (the cysteines and glycines excepted) of the original beta-hairpin of a scorpion toxin by the sequence of a beta-hairpin that forms part of the site by which snake neurotoxins bind to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AcChOR). The resulting chimeric protein, synthesized by chemical means, binds to AcChOR, though with a lower affinity than the snake toxins [Drakopoulou; E., Zinn-Justin, S., Guenneugues, M., Gilquin, B., Menez, A., & Vita, C.

Comparison of the structure of the chimera with those of the scorpion alpha/beta toxin and of the snake neurotoxin shows that (i) the new protein folds as an alpha/beta motif and (ii) the beta-hairpins of the chimera and of the curaremimetic toxin adopt a similar conformation.
