RT "Effects of phrixotoxins on the Kv4 family of potassium channels and
RT implications for the role of Ito1 in cardiac electrogenesis.";
RL Br. J. Pharmacol. 126:251-263(1999).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Potent and specific blocker of Kv4.2/KCND2 (IC(50)=34 nM) and
CC Kv4.3/KCND3 (IC(50)=71 nM) potassium channels (PubMed:10051143). Acts
CC by altering the gating properties of these channels (PubMed:10051143).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10051143}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10051143}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:10051143}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61230}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3921.77; Method=Electrospray;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10051143};
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The primary structure of this mature peptide is
CC identical to that of kappa-theraphotoxin-Gr2a (GsMTx-2) from
CC Grammostola rosea (AC P60273). {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Is the most abundant peptide in the venom.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10051143}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This toxin does not inhibit Kv1/KCNA, Kv2/KCNB,
CC Kv3/KCNC, and Kv11/KCNH channels (PubMed:10051143). It weakly blocks
CC the neuronal TTX-sensitive sodium currents of neuroblastoma cells (14%
CC inhibition at 500 nM) (PubMed:10051143). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10051143}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neurotoxin 30 (phrixotoxin) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
