RT "Heterologous expression of four recombinant toxins from Panamanian
RT scorpions of the genus Tityus and Centruroides for production of
RT antivenom.";
RL Toxicon X 13:100090-100090(2022).
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|UniProtKB:Q2NME3}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:35024608}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:35024608}.
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=7331.3; Method=Electrospray; Note=Average
CC mass.; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:35024608};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
