Beta toxins bind voltage-independently at site-4 of sodium channels (Nav) and shift the voltage of activation toward more negative potentials thereby affecting sodium channel activation and promoting spontaneous and repetitive firing. Competes, with apparent high affinity, with anti-insect and anti-mammalian beta-toxins for binding to cockroach and rat brain synaptosomes, respectively. Also competes with an anti-mammalian alpha-toxin on binding to rat brain sodium channels. Has a weak effect on cardiac sodium channels and a marked effect on rat brain and skeletal muscle sodium channels.
Source:Recombinant protein corresponding to aa20-85 from Leiurus hebraeus Beta-mammal/insect toxin Lqhb1, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in Baculovirus.
Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C.
