RT "Structure of the acid-sensing ion channel 1 in complex with the gating
RT modifier Psalmotoxin 1.";
RL Nat. Commun. 3:936-943(2012).
CC -!- FUNCTION: This toxin is a gating modifier that acts principally as an
CC inhibitor on ASIC1a (ASIC isoform 2) and a potentiator on ASIC1b (ASIC
CC isoform 3) (PubMed:10829030, PubMed:15955877, PubMed:21036899). This
CC toxin potently and selectively inhibits rat, mouse and human ASIC1a
CC (IC(50)=0.35-3.7 nM) (PubMed:10829030, PubMed:15955877,
CC PubMed:21715637, PubMed:26248594, PubMed:21825095). The blockade is
CC rapidly reversible (PubMed:10829030, PubMed:28320941). The toxin acts
CC by shifting its steady-state desensitization to more alkaline pH (0.27
CC pH unit) (PubMed:15955877, PubMed:16505147). At higher concentrations,
CC it potentiates rat and human ASIC1b and activates chicken ASIC1 by
CC stabilizing the open state of these subtypes (PubMed:16505147,
CC PubMed:21036899, PubMed:19185346, PubMed:24262969, PubMed:22842900).
CC The toxin binds most tightly to the open and the desensitized states of
CC ASIC1a (promoting desensitization), whereas it binds most tightly to
CC the open state of ASIC1b (promoting opening) (PubMed:16505147). The
CC toxin also inhibits mouse ASIC1a-ASIC2b (IC(50)=2.64 nM) and rat
CC ASIC1a-ASIC2a (PubMed:21715637, PubMed:27277303). It binds to the
CC extracellular domain at subunit interfaces in the acidic pocket with
CC the majority of contacts on the thumb domain of the channel
CC (PubMed:21825095, PubMed:22842900, PubMed:22760635). It is also
CC noteworthy that calcium competes with the toxin, probably by inhibiting
CC binding of the toxin to the channel (PubMed:15955877).

CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:10829030}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12824480, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21825095,

CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=4690; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:12824480};
CC -!- PHARMACEUTICAL: This toxin has been shown to be neuroprotective in both
CC rodent and porcine models of cerebral ischemia when administered 30
CC minutes prior to induction of stroke (PubMed:28457973). In addition, a
CC single dose of this toxin (1 ng/kg, i.c.v. 2 hours post stroke) does
CC indeed provide substantial neuronal and functional protection in
CC ischemic stroke in conscious hypertensive rats (PubMed:26320544).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26320544, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28457973}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This peptide is present at only 0.4% abundance in
CC P.cambridgei venom. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26320544}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Does not act on rat and mouse ASIC1a-ASIC2a
CC (PubMed:10829030, PubMed:21715637). Does not act on rat ASIC1a-ASIC3
CC (PubMed:10829030). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10829030,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21715637}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the psalmotoxin-1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
