RC TISSUE=Venom;
RA Zhu S.Y., Gao B.;
RT "Characterization of a sodium channel toxin from the scorpion Mesobuthus
RT eupeus venom.";
RL Submitted (NOV-2009) to UniProtKB.
CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibits sodium channels (Nav). Has antimicrobial activity.
CC {ECO:0000269|Ref.2}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|Ref.2}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305|Ref.2}.
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=7785; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|Ref.2};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. {ECO:0000255}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Zhu and colleagues published information on another
CC 'Neurotoxin MeuNaTx-6' in 2012 (AC E7CZY9), whose sequence highly
CC differs from the one presented here. {ECO:0000305}.
