==Function== | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SCX1_ODODO SCX1_ODODO]] Alpha toxins bind voltage-independently at site-3 of sodium channels and inhibit the inactivation of the activated channels, thereby blocking neuronal transmission. Mammalian sodium channels Nav1.5/SCN2A (only at micromolar concentrations), Nav1.7/SCN9A (EC(50)=4.5 nM) and insect sodium channel para/tipE (EC(50)=80 nM) are affected by this toxin, whereas mammalian sodium channels Nav1.2/SCN2A, Nav1.3/SCN3A, and Nav1.8/SCN10A are unaffected by high concentrations.<ref>PMID:16038905</ref> <ref>PMID:16641312</ref> | |||
