RT "Purification and characterization of raventoxin-I and raventoxin-III, two
RT neurotoxic peptides from the venom of the spider Macrothele raveni.";
RL Toxicon 41:651-656(2003).
CC -!- FUNCTION: This toxin blocks the neuromuscular transmission, and also
CC acts on muscle. It exerts an effect of first exciting and then
CC inhibiting the contraction of muscle. This toxin is active only against
CC mammals. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12727269}.
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:0000305}.
CC -!- PTM: Contains 4 disulfide bonds.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=4841.11; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:12727269};
CC -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 0.772 mg/kg by intraabdominal injection into
CC mice. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12727269}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neurotoxin 35 family.
