Alpha-toxin Lqq4

UniProtKB accession:  P01489

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Alpha toxins bind voltage-independently at site-3 of sodium channels (Nav) and inhibit the inactivation of the activated channels, thereby blocking neuronal transmission. Both native and recombinant (non-amidated) toxins inhibit inactivation of Nav1.2/SCN2A (EC(50)=31.2-36.6 nM), Nav1.6/SCN8A (EC(50)=6.9-8.9 nM), and Nav1.7/SCN9A (EC(50)=182.0-260.1 nM).
