CC   -!- FUNCTION: Beta toxins bind voltage-independently at site-4 of sodium
CC       channels (Nav) and shift the voltage of activation toward more negative
CC       potentials thereby affecting sodium channel activation and promoting
CC       spontaneous and repetitive firing. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
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   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=7294.01; Method=MALDI;
CC       Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16356783};
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC       Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
