RT "The omega-atracotoxins: selective blockers of insect M-LVA and HVA calcium
RT channels.";
RL Submitted (APR-2007) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases.
CC -!- FUNCTION: Insecticidal toxin that reversibly and voltage-independently
CC blocks both mid-low- (M-LVA) and high-voltage-activated (HVA) calcium
CC channels (Cav) in cockroach DUM neurons. Also causes a modest block of
CC insect sodium channel currents (Nav). Induces potent excitatory
CC symptoms, followed by flaccid paralysis leading to death in house
CC crickets (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This toxin comes from a male specimen. It is observed
CC that propeptide sequences coming from male specimen are identical but
CC have only limited homology with the female paralogs, but the reason is
CC unknown.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neurotoxin 08 (Shiva) family. 01 (omega
CC toxin) subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
