Agelenin, isolated from the Agelenidae spider Agelena opulenta, is a peptide composed of 35 amino acids. We determined the three-dimensional structure of agelenin using two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The structure is composed of a short antiparallel beta-sheet and four beta-turns, which are stabilized by three disulfide bonds ...
