RT   the venom of the scorpion Orthochirus scrobiculosus.";
RL   Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 286:841-847(2001).
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Potent and selective inhibitor of Kv1.2/KCNA2 potassium
CC       channels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11527374}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC   -!- DOMAIN: Has the structural arrangement of an alpha-helix connected to
CC       antiparallel beta-sheets by disulfide bonds (CS-alpha/beta).
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=2892.14; Method=MALDI;
CC       Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:11527374};
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Negative results: does not block Kv1.1/KCNA1 and
CC       Kv1.3/KCNA3 potassium channels. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:11527374}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the short scorpion toxin superfamily. Potassium
CC       channel inhibitor family. Alpha-KTx 13 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
