RT   (Scorpiones: Buthidae).";
RL   Toxicon 61:72-82(2013).
CC   -!- FUNCTION: May play a role in blocking voltage-gated potassium channels
CC       Kv1.2/KCNA2, Kv1.3/KCNA3 and Kv1.6/KCNA6 to a lesser extent.
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23142506}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23142506}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:23142506}.
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:Q9NJP7}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Has no effect on rat Kv1.1/KCNA1, Kv1.4/KCNA4 and
CC       Kv1.5/KCNA5 voltage-gated potassium channels.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:23142506}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC       channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 09 subfamily. {ECO:0000255}.
