CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibits sodium channels Nav1.1/SCN1A (IC(50)=5.7 uM),
CC Nav1.2/SCN2A (IC(50)=12 uM), Nav1.4/SCN4A (IC(50)=4 uM), Nav1.6/SCN8A
CC (IC(50)=6.6 uM), Nav1.7/SCN9A (IC(50)=13.6-1030 nM), potassium channels
CC Kv11.1/KCNH2 (IC(50)=4.7 uM), as well as high-voltage-gated calcium
CC channels Cav1.2/CACNA1C (IC(50)= nM) (PubMed:19955179, PubMed:30661758,
CC PubMed:31234412). Also blocks mechanosensitive ion channels (also named
CC stretch-activated channels or SACs) and the hypotonic cell swelling
CC induced calcium increase associated with the activation of such
CC channels (Ref.3). It can thus be useful in treating cardiac ventricular
CC disturbances (Ref.3). Also induces analgesia in mammals (Ref.2).

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:31234412, ECO:0000269|Ref.2, ECO:0000269|Ref.3}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21740921,
CC ECO:0000269|Ref.2, ECO:0000269|Ref.3}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:21740921, ECO:0000305|Ref.2, ECO:0000305|Ref.3}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61230}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3979.9; Method=Electrospray;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|Ref.2, ECO:0000269|Ref.3};
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3980.0; Method=Unknown;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:19955179};
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This toxin does not have effect on sodium channels
CC Nav1.3/SCN3A (IC(50)=24 uM) and Nav1.5/SCN5A (IC(50)>40 uM), and
CC potassium channels Kv1.1/KCNA1, Kv1.4/KCNA4, Kv11.2/KCNH6 and
CC Kv11.3/KCNH7 (IC(50)>200 uM). {ECO:0000305|PubMed:19955179}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neurotoxin 30 (phrixotoxin) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
