... belongs to Type 1 sea anemone neurotoxins, which target the α-subunits of voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav1.x). It has ... The affinity of BcIII to different sodium channels based on EC50 data. BcIII binds to site 3 of voltage-gated sodium channels ... It targets the site 3 of voltage-gated sodium channels, thus mainly prolonging the inactivation time course of the channel. ... BcIII binds to voltage-gated sodium channels on site 3, which is the extracellular loop connecting the segments S3 and S4 (the ...

Additionally, grayanotoxin only binds to the activated conformation of sodium channels. Normally, voltage gated sodium channels ... grayanotoxin is classified as a reversible Nav1.x agonist. Prolonged sodium channel activation and cell depolarization leads to ... At the peak of the action potential, voltage-gated sodium channels are quickly inactivated and are only reset once the cell has ... The toxicity of grayanotoxin is derived from its ability to interfere with voltage-gated sodium channels located in the cell ...

Voltage-gated sodium channels found in mammals can be divided into three types: Nav1.x, Nav2.x, and Nav3.x. Nav1.x sodium ... Voltage-gated sodium channels can be divided into two subunits: alpha and beta. A variety of alpha subunit voltage-gated sodium ... But unlike voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels, the voltage-gated potassium channel moves cations out of the cell thereby ... Like voltage-gated sodium channels, voltage-gated calcium channels are also integral membrane proteins found in the plasma ...
