Biochem/physiol Actions

Margatoxin is an α-KTx toxin, which is majorly used in ion channel research.[1] It is a 39-amino acid peptide, which is a specific K(V)1.3 channel voltage-dependent K+ channel blocker.[2] Margatoxin is an immunosuppressant that is isolated from the venom of the scorpion Centruroides margaritatus.[3]

Voltage-dependent K(+) channels were identified and characterized in primary culture of rat prostate epithelial cells. A voltage-dependent, inactivating K(+) channel was the most commonly observed ion channel in both lateral and dorsal cells. The K(+) current exhibited a voltage threshold

A novel peptidyl inhibitor of K+ channels has been purified to homogeneity from venom of the new world scorpion Centruroides margaritatus. The primary structure of this 39-amino-acid peptide, which we term margatoxin (MgTX), was determined by amino acid compositional analysis

The potassium channel Kv1.3 is a potentially attractive therapeutic target in T cell-mediated inflammatory diseases, as the activity of antigen-activated T cells is selectively impeded by Kv1.3 inhibition. In this study, we examined Kv1.3 as a potential therapeutic intervention point

The transient increase of the cytoplasmic free calcium level plays a key role in the process of lymphocyte activation. Kv1.3 and IKCa1 potassium channels are important regulators of the maintenance of calcium influx during lymphocyte activation and present a possible
