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. Is active on mammals and bind
CC with high affinity to rat brain synaptosome. Does not display
CC phospholipid-binding activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8212041,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8626486}.
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 -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 125 ng/kg (2.5 ng/mouse) by
CC intracerebroventricular injection into mice, 3.4 pmol/g by subcutaneous
CC injection in mouse and 2317 pmol/g in Blattella germanica.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8626486}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. Alpha subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
