RT "Characterization of a chloride channel toxin-like peptide from the
RT scorpion Mesobuthus eupeus venom.";
RL Submitted (NOV-2009) to UniProtKB.
CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibits Kv1.2/KCNA2 potassium channels. On glioma cells, may
CC interact with chloride channels (probably Clc-3/CLCN3) and MMP2 at the
CC surface of glioma cells. This complex may be then internalized via
CC caveolae, thus inhibiting the chloride channels necessary for cell
CC shrinkage and tumor propagation. {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00545,
CC ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305|Ref.1}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P15222}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=3935; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|Ref.1};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Chloride
CC channel inhibitor family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00545}.
