CC   -!- FUNCTION: Beta toxins bind voltage-independently at site-4 of sodium
CC       channels (Nav) and reduces peak current and shifts the voltage of
CC       activation toward more negative potentials thereby affecting sodium
CC       channel activation and promoting spontaneous and repetitive firing
CC       (PubMed:32479835). Has an inhibitory effect on voltage-gated sodium
CC       channel hNav1.6/SCN8A, affecting both the activation and inactivation
CC       processes (PubMed:32479835). Also reduces the peak current of
CC       hNav1.5/SCN5A but does not shift its voltage of activation
CC       (PubMed:32479835). This toxin is active against mammals and lethal to
CC       mice (PubMed:32479835). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32479835}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32479835}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:32479835}.
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   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=7727.6; Mass_error=1; Method=Electrospray;
CC       Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:32479835};
CC   -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 1.5 ug/mouse by intraperitoneal injection into
CC       mice. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32479835}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC       Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
