Toxin K selectively blocks Kv1.1 channels, and both toxins slow channel gating kinetics, suggesting steric hindrance of conformational changes during channel gating.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
No immediate clinical application; leaves open selective Kv1.1 blockade as a research tool for channelopathies.
Robertson et al. (1996) studied this question.
