CC -!- FUNCTION: Blocks Kv11/ERG potassium channels (tested in MMQ lactotroph
CC cells that contain the three ERG channels: rKv11.1/KCNH2/ERG1,
CC rKv11.2/KCNH6/ERG2 and rKv11.3/KCNH7/ERG3). This toxin can be used to
CC distinguish slow deactivating components (ERGS) from fast deactivating
CC components (ERGF) currents, since it specifically blocks ERGS.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11978818}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12459475}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Has the CSalpha/beta fold, which comprises one or two short
CC alpha helices connected to anti-parallel beta-sheets stabilized by
CC three or four disulfide bonds. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q86QT3}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=4783; Method=Unknown;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:11978818};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ergtoxin family. Gamma-KTx 3 subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
