Product ID |
L8425-100UG |
Name |
JINGZHAOTOXIN-III |
Molecular formula |
C174H241N47O46S6 |
Description |
A 36 amino-acids peptide with 3 disulfide bridges
, synthetic, initially isolated from the venom of the Chinese fawn tarantula Chilobrachys jingzhao, also known as Plesiophrictus guangxiensi.

Biological activity |
Jingzhaotoxin-III (ß-TRTX-Cj1α) selectively inhibits the activation of the voltage-dependent sodium channel Nav1.5 in heart or cancer cells with an IC50 value close to 350 nM. It is inactive on Nav1.2, Nav1.4, Nav1.6 and Nav1.7 and should therefore be considered as an interesting research tool to discriminate between sodium channel subtypes. Jingzhaotoxin-III binds onto receptor site 4 presumably located on DIIS3-S4 linker of Nav1.5 and supposedly blocks Nav1.5 through a different mechanism than ProTx-II and Huwentoxin IV. Jingzhaotoxin-III also inhibits Kv2.1 channel with an IC50 of around 700 nM. |
