RT "Dynamic diversification from a putative common ancestor of scorpion toxins
RT affecting sodium, potassium, and chloride channels.";
RL J. Mol. Evol. 48:187-196(1999).
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.
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. Alpha subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
