Activity

Neurotoxin
FUNCTION: Inhibitor of voltage-gated potassium channels (Kv). It is capable of displacing the binding of radio-labeled noxiustoxin (AC P08815) to rat brain synaptosomes with high affinity (about 100 pM). It is also capable of inhibiting transient potassium-currents (resembling I(A)-type currents), in cultured rat cerebellar granule cells. About 50% of the peak currents are reduced by application of a 1.5 uM solution of this toxin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7998956}.
