CC   -!- FUNCTION: Blocks Kv3 voltage-gated potassium channels. Reduces blood
CC       pressure. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11494}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305}. Nematocyst {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Experimental results show no expression in the
CC       ectodermal tissue from the distal and proximal tentacles, body wall,
CC       and oral disk. Since paralogs are expressed in this tissue, an
CC       expression of this toxin in this tissue is probable. The negative
CC       results could be explained by the very low abundance of EST sequences.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:24177670}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the sea anemone type 3 (BDS) potassium channel
CC       toxin family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- CAUTION: Opinions are divided on whether Anemonia viridis (Forsskal,
CC       1775) and Anemonia sulcata (Pennant, 1777) are separate species.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
