CC -!- FUNCTION: Insecticidal neurotoxin that induces irreversible
CC neuromuscular blockade in house crickets (A.domesticus). Modifies
CC presynaptic voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav), causing them to open
CC at the normal resting potential of the nerve. This leads to spontaneous
CC release of neurotransmitter and repetitive action potentials in motor
CC neurons. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2298738}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
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 -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 20 mg/kg in house crickets (Acheta domesticus).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2298738}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neurotoxin 07 (Beta/delta-agtx) family. 04
CC (aga-5) subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
