CC   -!- FUNCTION: May block potassium channels. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC   -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of an alpha-helix connected to
CC       antiparallel beta-sheets by disulfide bonds (CS-alpha/beta).
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC       channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 23 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- CAUTION: Has been classified as a the potassium channel toxin alpha-KTx
CC       22.6 in PubMed:22230549. Since the subfamily 22 has already been
CC       attributed, this peptide should be reclassified as alpha-KTx 23.6.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
