Biochem/physiol Actions

Recombinant peptide of scyllatoxin, a 31 amino acid long toxin, originally isolated from the venom of the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus; selective blocker of apamin-sensitive small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (SK channels) with highest affinity towards Kca2.2.
Scyllatoxin was used to study small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel signaling in rat superior cervical ganglion neurons. Myometrial strips from non-pregnant women were treated with Scyllatoxin to study the NO-induced relaxation of endometrium.

The three-dimensional solution structure of Scyllatoxin (leiurotoxin I) a venom peptide from the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus was determined at 1 A resolution by homonuclear proton n.m.r. methods at 500 MHz. Data analysis and structure calculation followed conventional protocols inherent

Leiurotoxin I is a neurotoxin, blocker of Ca(2+)-activated apamin-sensitive K+ channel, purified from the venom of the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus. It is a 31-residue polypeptide reticulated by three disulfide bridges, i.e. Cys3-Cys21, Cys8-Cys26 and Cys12-Cys28. To investigate the role
