Bioactivity | Kaliotoxin is a peptidyl inhibitor of neuronal BK-Type. Kaliotoxin can specific inhibit Kv channels and calcium-activated potassium channels. Kaliotoxin can be used for the research of the regulation of membrane potential and neuron excitability[1][2]. |
Invitro | Kaliotoxin (KTX) (250 nM) specifically suppressed the whole cell Ca2+-activated K+ current[1].Kaliotoxin interacts in a one-to-one way with KCa channels with a Kd of 20 nM[1]. |
