CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibits voltage-gated potassium channel rKv1.1/KCNA1
CC (IC(50)=1.9 nM) (PubMed:25792741, PubMed:32733247). Also shows less
CC potent inhibition on Kv1.2/KCNA2 (IC(50)=105.9 nM), Kv1.3/KCNA3
CC (IC(50)=8.9 nM), and Kv1.6/KCNA6 (IC(50)=63.4 nM) (PubMed:32733247).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25792741, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32733247}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25792741}.
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:Q9NII7}.
CC -!- PTM: C-terminal amidation is not fundamental for activity. It permits a
CC slightly higher activity on Kv1.1/KCNA1 potassium channels (native
CC toxin IC(50)=1.9 nM), than non-amidated recombinant toxin (IC(50)=6.7
CC nM). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32733247}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3962; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:25792741};
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The primary structure of this mature peptide is
CC identical to that of toxin alpha-KTx 3.6 from Mesobuthus martensii (AC
CC Q9NII7). {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 03 subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000303|PubMed:25792741}.
