CC -!- FUNCTION: Alpha toxins bind voltage-independently at site-3 of sodium
CC channels (Nav) and inhibit the inactivation of the activated channels,
CC thereby blocking neuronal transmission. This toxin binds, in vitro, to
CC sodium channels and inhibits the inactivation of the activated
CC channels. Seems not toxic to mice, crickets and sweet-water shrimps (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of an alpha-helix connected to
CC antiparallel beta-sheets by disulfide bonds (CS-alpha/beta).
CC {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: This toxin sequence resembles the beta scorpion toxin class,
CC although patch-clamp experiments shows the induction of supplementary
CC slow inactivation of sodium channels, which means that it behaves like
CC an alpha scorpion toxin. {ECO:0000305}.
