RT polylepis polylepis (black mamba).";
RL S. Afr. J. Chem. 30:40-48(1977).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Binds with high affinity to muscular (alpha-1/CHRNA1) and
CC neuronal (alpha-7/CHRNA7) nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) and
CC inhibits acetylcholine from binding to the receptor, thereby impairing
CC neuromuscular and neuronal transmission.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P60615}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 0.4 mg/kg by subcutaneous injection.
CC {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the snake three-finger toxin family. Long-chain
CC subfamily. Type II alpha-neurotoxin sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
