CC -!- FUNCTION: Mu-conotoxins block voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav). This
CC synthetic toxin potently blocks rNav1.4/SCN4A (IC(50)= 7 nM). It also
CC moderately blocks rNav1.1/SCN1A (IC(50)=370 nM), rNav1.2/SCN2A
CC (IC(50)=1 uM), and mNav1.6/SCN6A (IC(50)=570 nM) (PubMed:18831583,
CC PubMed:21652775). It is noteworthy that coexpression of subunits beta-2
CC or beta-4 (but not beta-1 or beta-3) decrease by about 16-fold the
CC binding potency of the toxin to rNav1.6, since these subunits (thanks
CC to their extracellular domain) covalently bind to the key cysteine of
CC the channel, thus preventing the covalent binding of the toxin
CC (PubMed:25632083). It is also noteworthy that the toxin is 50-fold more
CC potent on mouse Nav1.6 than on rat Nav1.6 (PubMed:25632083). In vivo,
CC when injected intraperitoneally or subcutaneously in mice, causes motor
CC impairment, paralysis and death (PubMed:18831583).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18831583, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21652775}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18831583}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom duct.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18831583}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The cysteine framework is III (CC-C-C-CC). Classified in the M-
CC 4 branch, since 4 residues stand between the fourth and the fifth
CC cysteine residues. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- TOXIC DOSE: When injected intraperitoneally or subcutaneously in mice,
CC this toxin causes motor impairment/paralysis and is lethal at doses as
CC low as 0.6 nmol per mouse. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18831583}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Does not inhibit rNav1.3/SCN3A, rNav1.5/SCN5A,
CC rNav1.7/SCN9A and rNav1.8/SCN10A (PubMed:21652775, PubMed:25632083).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21652775, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25632083}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the conotoxin M superfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
