Neurotoxin
FUNCTION: Neurotoxin. Selectively blocks neuronal tetrodotoxin-sensitive voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav) with an IC(50) of 44.6 nM. Does not affect tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channels or calcium channels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12518233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12827284, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14512091}.
