CC -!- FUNCTION: Potent inhibitor voltage-gated potassium channels Kv1.3/KCNA3
CC (Kd=0.65 nM) and Kv1.1/KCNA1 (Kd=41 nM) (PubMed:7517498). It appears to
CC block channel activity by a simple bimolecular inhibition process.
CC Induces a transient period of fast flickering in the channel openings,
CC followed by an almost complete blockade of the channel. Its binding
CC affinity to rat brain synaptosomes is 5-fold higher than this of KTX-3.
CC Binding of the toxin to the channel is associated with significant
CC structural rearrangements in both molecules. It also shows a weak
CC interaction with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), suggesting
CC it may weakly inhibit it (PubMed:31276191).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1730708, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7517498}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1730708}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:1730708}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of an alpha-helix connected to a
CC beta-sheet by disulfide bonds (CSalpha/beta).
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Shows weak inhibition of large conductance calcium-
CC activated potassium channels (KCa1.1/KCNMA1) (Ki=1560 nM)
CC (PubMed:20007782). Shows weak or no inhibition on
CC Kv1.2/KCNA2(PubMed:7517498, PubMed:20007782). Shows no effect on
CC Kv1.5/KCNA5 and Kv3.1/KCNC1 (PubMed:7517498).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20007782, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7517498}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 03 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
