| + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SCM1_MESMA SCM1_MESMA] Alpha toxins bind voltage-independently at site-3 of sodium channels (Nav) and inhibit the inactivation of the activated channels thereby blocking neuronal transmission. This toxin is active against both mammals and insects, and is classified as an alpha-like toxin. It is active on Nav1.2/SCN2A (EC(50)=139-252 nM), Nav1.3/SCN3A (EC(50)=565 nM), Nav1.4/SCN4A and Nav1.5/SCN5A (EC(50)=195-500 nM), Nav1.6/SCN8A (EC(50)=214 nM), and drosophila DmNav1 (EC(50)=30 nM) (PubMed:11322948, PubMed:12705833, PubMed:15677695, PubMed:19162162, PubMed:20678086). In mNav1.6/SCN8A, the toxin induces a large increase in both transient and persistent currents, which correlates with a prominent reduction in the fast component of inactivating current (PubMed:20678086). In rNav1.2/SCN2A and rNav1.3/SCN3A, toxin-increased currents is much smaller (PubMed:19162162, PubMed:20678086). Moreover, the toxin only accelerates the slow inactivation development and delay recovery of mNav1.6/SCN8A through binding to the channel in the open state (PubMed:20678086). Is 6-fold more toxic than BmK-M2. In vivo, intrahippocampal injection into rat induces epileptiform responses (PubMed:16229835). In addition, intraplantar injection into rat induces spontaneous nociception and hyperalgesia (PubMed:14554105).<ref>PMID:11322948</ref> <ref>PMID:12705833</ref> <ref>PMID:14554105</ref> <ref>PMID:15677695</ref> <ref>PMID:16229835</ref> <ref>PMID:19162162</ref> <ref>PMID:20678086</ref> | ||

| - | The crystal structures of two group III alpha-like toxins from the scorpion Buthus martensii Karsch, BmK M1 and BmK M4, were determined at 1.7 A and 1.3 A resolution and refined to R factors of 0.169 and 0.166, respectively. The first high-resolution structures of the alpha-like scorpion toxin show some striking features compared with structures of the "classical" alpha-toxin. Firstly, a non-proline cis peptide bond between residues 9 and 10 unusually occurs in the five-member reverse turn 8-12. Secondly, the cis peptide 9-10 mediates the spatial relationship between the turn 8-12 and the C-terminal stretch 58-64 through a pair of main-chain hydrogen bonds between residues 10 and 64 to form a unique tertiary arrangement which features the special orientation of the terminal residues 62-64. Finally, in consequence of the peculiar orientation of the C-terminal residues, the functional groups of Arg58, which are crucial for the toxin-receptor interaction, are exposed and accessible in BmK M1 and M4 rather than buried as in the classical alpha-toxins. Sequence alignment and characteristics analysis suggested that the above structural features observed in BmK M1 and M4 occur in all group III alpha-like toxins. Recently, some group III alpha-like toxins were demonstrated to occupy a receptor site different from the classical alpha-toxin. Therefore, the distinct structural features of BmK M1 and M4 presented here may provide the structural basis for the newly recognized toxin-receptor binding site selectivity. Besides, the non-proline cis peptide bonds found in these two structures play a role in the formation of the structural characteristics and in keeping accurate positions of the functionally crucial residues. This manifested a way to achieve high levels of molecular specificity and atomic precision through the strained backbone geometry. | ||
