Product Description
Recombinant Hadronyche versuta Omega-hexatoxin-Hv1a is available at Gentaur for Next week Delivery.
Gene Name: N/A
Alternative Names : Omega-atracotoxin-Hv1a Short name: AcTx-Hv1 Short name: Omega-AcTx-Hv1a
Expression Region : 1-37aa
AA Sequence : SPTCIPSGQPCPYNENCCSQSCTFKENENGNTVKRCD
Sequence Info : Full Length
Tag Info : N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO-tagged
Theoretical MW : 20.1 kDa
Storage Buffer : Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.
Endotoxin Level : Not tested-
Biological Activity : Not tested
Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.
Research Area : Others
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : Reversibly and voltage-independently blocks both mid-low- (M-LVA) and high-voltage-activated (HVA) calcium channels in cockroach DUM neurons. Lethal to many insect orders but not toxic to mice or rabbits. May target the insect high-voltage-activated calcium channel Dmca1D. Also inhibits acarines calcium channels. An extremely high toxin concentration partially inhibits Cav1.2/CACNA1C, Cav2.1/CACNA1A and Cav2.2/CACNA1B calcium channel of rats. As for omega-AcTx-Hv2a, the phenotypic effect of injection of this toxin into lone star ticks (Amblyomma americanum) is curling of all eight legs into closed loops.
