UniProtKB - P0DL46 (KA169_BUTPA)
Protein
Potassium channel toxin alpha-KTx 16.9
Gene
N/A
Organism
Buthus paris (Scorpion) (Buthus occitanus paris)
Status
Functioni
Poorly competes with (125)I-kaliotoxin binding on rat brain synaptosome (IC50>100 nM). Is a poor Kv1.3/KCNA3 ligand (PubMed:23523531).
May have as real target KCa1.1/KCNMA1 channel (By similarity).
Shows weak toxicity on mice (PubMed:23523531).
