Apamin

Apamin – Ion Channels and Transporters Apamin is a neurotoxin that was originally isolated from Apis mellifera. Apamin binds to and inhibits the SK channels (small conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels) in the brain and spinal cord. Apamin inhibits three...

AmmTx3

AmmTx3 – Ion Channels and Transporters AmmTx3 has been originally isolated from the venom of the scorpion Androctonus mauretanicus and is now offered by Smartox in its synthetic version. AmmTx3 binds on its target A-type potassium channel with an affinity of 66...

alpha-cobratoxin

alpha-cobratoxin – Ion Channels and Transporters α-cobratoxin (alpha-elapitoxin-Nk2a) has been isolated from the venom of the Naja kaouthia cobra snake. α-cobratoxin preferentially blocks muscular and neuronal α 7/CHRNA7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (Kd = 55...

Agitoxin-2

Agitoxin-2 – Ion Channels and Transporters Agitoxin-2 is a potent and selective blocker of the Shaker type voltage-gated Kv1.3 and Kv1.1 channels. Agitoxin-2 inhibits Kv1.3 with an IC50 value of around 200 pM and Kv1.1 with an IC50 value of around 140 pM. This...

ADWX-1

ADWX-1 – Ion Channels and Transporters ADWX-1 is an optimised synthetic analog of the scorpion peptide BmKTx. ADWX-1 is known to block voltage-gated Kv1.3 channel with a high affinity (IC50 = 1.89 pM) and selectivity (340 fold greater affinity than for...
