CC -!- FUNCTION: Shows very weak blocking activity on voltage-gated potassium
CC channels Kv10.1/KCNH1/EAG1 (6.2% inhibition by 40 uM of the toxin)
CC (PubMed:27578329). Has no effect on the other voltage-gated potassium
CC channels tested (PubMed:15670585). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:27578329}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:15670585}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of two alpha-helices stabilized
CC by disulfide bonds (CSalpha/alpha 2(S-S)).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P82851}.
CC -!- PTM: Is not amidated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=2620.7; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585};
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Has no effect on Kv1.1/KCNA1, Kv1.2/KCNA2 and
CC Kv1.3/KCNA3 potassium channels, suggesting that the presence of an
CC additional charged residue in a position adjacent to the dyad lysine
CC impedes the functional block of Kv1 channels produced by this toxin.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15670585}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC channel inhibitor kappa-KTx family. Kappa-KTx 1 subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
