'''Solution Structure of BmP07, A Novel Potassium Channel Blocker from Scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch, 15 structures'''<br />


==Overview==
==Solution Structure of BmP07, A Novel Potassium Channel Blocker from Scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch, 15 structures==
A natural K+ channel blocker, BmKK2 (a member of scorpion toxin subfamily, alpha-KTx 14), which is composed of 31 amino acid residues and purified, from the venom of the Chinese scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch, was, characterized using whole-cell patch-clamp recording in rat hippocampal, neurons. The three dimensional structure of BmKK2 was determined with, two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling techniques. In, solution this toxin adopted a common alpha/beta-motif, but showed distinct, local conformation in the loop between alpha-helix and beta-sheet in, comparison with typical short-chain scorpion toxins (e.g., CTX and NTX)., Also, the alpha helix is shorter and the beta-sheet element is smaller, (each strand consisted only two residues). The unusual structural feature, of BmKK2 was attributed to the shorter loop between the alpha-helix and, beta-sheet and the presence of two consecutive Pro residues at position 21, and 22 in the loop. Moreover, two models of BmKK2/hKv1.3 channel and, BmKK2/rSK2 channel complexes were simulated with docking calculations. The, results demonstrated the existence of a alpha-mode binding between the, toxin and the channels. The model of BmKK2/rSK2 channel complex exhibited, favorable contacts both in electrostatic and hydrophobic, including a, network of five hydrogen bonds and bigger interface containing seven pairs, of inter-residue interactions. In contrast, the model of BmKK2/hKv1.3, channel complex, containing only three pairs of inter-residue, interactions, exhibited poor contacts and smaller interface. The results, well explained its lower activity towards Kv channel, and predicted that, it may prefer a type of SK channel with a narrower entryway as its, specific receptor.

A natural K+ channel blocker, BmKK2 (a member of scorpion toxin subfamily alpha-KTx 14), which is composed of 31 amino acid residues and purified from the venom of the Chinese scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch, was characterized using whole-cell patch-clamp recording in rat hippocampal neurons. The three dimensional structure of BmKK2 was determined with two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling techniques. In solution this toxin adopted a common alpha/beta-motif, but showed distinct local conformation in the loop between alpha-helix and beta-sheet in comparison with typical short-chain scorpion toxins (e.g., CTX and NTX). Also, the alpha helix is shorter and the beta-sheet element is smaller (each strand consisted only two residues). The unusual structural feature of BmKK2 was attributed to the shorter loop between the alpha-helix and beta-sheet and the presence of two consecutive Pro residues at position 21 and 22 in the loop. Moreover, two models of BmKK2/hKv1.3 channel and BmKK2/rSK2 channel complexes were simulated with docking calculations. The results demonstrated the existence of a alpha-mode binding between the toxin and the channels. The model of BmKK2/rSK2 channel complex exhibited favorable contacts both in electrostatic and hydrophobic, including a network of five hydrogen bonds and bigger interface containing seven pairs of inter-residue interactions. In contrast, the model of BmKK2/hKv1.3 channel complex, containing only three pairs of inter-residue interactions, exhibited poor contacts and smaller interface.
