Functioni

Alpha-KTx 16.2: inhibits large conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa1.1/Slo-beta4 KCNMA1/KCNMB4). It appears to block channel activity by a simple bimolecular inhibition process. Shows a fast association rate and a slow dissociation rate of binding on rat brain synaptosome (PubMed:18199674). Significantly inhibits voltage-dependent sodium current and voltage-dependent delayed rectifier potassium currents (PubMed:14632928).2 Publications

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.
