RT occitanus tunetanus venom.";
RL Toxicon 35:365-382(1997).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Depressant insect beta-toxins cause a transient contraction
CC paralysis followed by a slow flaccid paralysis. They bind voltage-
CC independently at site-4 of sodium channels (Nav) and shift the voltage
CC of activation toward more negative potentials thereby affecting sodium
CC channel activation and promoting spontaneous and repetitive firing.
CC This toxin is active only on insects. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9080593}.
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 -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=6791.78; Mass_error=1.28; Method=Electrospray;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9080593};
CC -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 1.1 ug/g in Blattella germanica.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9080593}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the long (4 C-C) scorpion toxin superfamily.
CC Sodium channel inhibitor family. Beta subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: The measured molecular weight is 17 daltons lower than the
CC expected one suggesting an experimental error. {ECO:0000305}.
