CC -!- FUNCTION: Blocker of A-type voltage-gated potassium channels of
CC cerebellar granular cells (PubMed:11018665). May also inhibit Kv4/KCND
CC when coexpressed with DPP6 or DPP10 (By similarity). The occlusion of
CC the outer entry of the K(+) conducting pore is partially reversible and
CC affects both open and closed channels (PubMed:11018665). It shares the
CC same target in rat brain than BmTX3 (AC Q8I0L5) and AmmTX3 (AC P60208).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P60208, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11018665,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12473099}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11018665}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of an alpha-helix connected to a
CC beta-sheet by disulfide bonds (CSalpha/beta).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P84777}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3850.83; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:11018665};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 15 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
