Potassium channel toxin gamma-KTx 2.2

Gene
N/A
Organism
Mesobuthus martensii (Manchurian scorpion) (Buthus martensii)
Status
Reviewed-Annotation score: Annotation score: 3 out of 5-Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Functioni

Blocks human and/or rat Kv11.1/KCNH2/ERG1, Kv11.2/KCNH6/ERG2 and Kv11.3/KCNH7/ERG3 by binding to channel outer vestibule (S5P domain) with a 1:1 stoichiometry. Has also a minimal effect on rat ELK1/KCNH4 potassium channels.By similarity

Links to similar proteins from the UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef) at 100%, 90% and 50% sequence identity:
100%UniRef100 combines identical sequences and sub-fragments with 11 or more residues from any organism into one UniRef entry.
90%UniRef90 is built by clustering UniRef100 sequences that have at least 90% sequence identity to, and 80% overlap with, the longest sequence (a.k.a seed sequence).
50%UniRef50 is built by clustering UniRef90 seed sequences that have at least 50% sequence identity to, and 80% overlap with, the longest sequence in the cluster.

Miscellaneousi

Caution

Has been classified as a gamma-KTx toxin due to its molecular target (Kv11/ERG), but could be classified as an alpha-KTx since it shares a high level of homology in both primary and 3D structures with other alpha-KTx scorpion toxins.Curated
