Neurotoxin
FUNCTION: Potently and selectively inhibits voltage-gated potassium channels Kv11/KCNH/ERG. Acts as a gating-modifier toxin that shifts the voltage-dependence of ERG activation in the positive direction and suppresses its current amplitudes elicited by strong depolarizing pulses that maximally activate the channels. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61541}.
