CC   -!- FUNCTION: Reversibly blocks Kv11/ERG potassium channels.
CC       {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P59940}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q86QU9}.
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   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ergtoxin family. Gamma-KTx 4 subfamily.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
