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 -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
