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. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305}.
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. Alpha subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
