'''SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF A BETA-NEUROTOXIN FROM THE NEW WORLD SCORPION CENTRUROIDES SCULPTURATUS EWING'''<br />


==Overview==
==SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF A BETA-NEUROTOXIN FROM THE NEW WORLD SCORPION CENTRUROIDES SCULPTURATUS EWING==
We report the detailed solution structure of the 7.2 kDa protein CsE-I, a, beta-neurotoxin from the New World scorpion Centruroides sculpturatus, Ewing. This toxin binds to sodium channels, but unlike the, alpha-neurotoxins, shifts the voltage of activation toward more negative, potentials causing the membrane to fire spontaneously. Sequence-specific, proton NMR assignments were made using 600 MHz 2D-NMR data. Distance, geometry and dynamical simulated annealing refinements were performed, using experimental distance and torsion angle constraints from NOESY and, pH-COSY data. A family of 40 structures without constraint violations was, generated, and an energy-minimized average structure was computed. The, backbone conformation of the CsE-I toxin shows similar secondary, structural features as the prototypical alpha-neurotoxin, CsE-v3, and is, characterized by a short 2(1/2)-turn alpha-helix and a 3-strand, antiparallel beta-sheet, both held together by disulfide bridges. The RMSD, for the backbone atoms between CsE-I and CsE-v3 is 1.48 A. Despite this, similarity in the overall backbone folding, the these two proteins show, some important differences in the primary structure (sequence) and, electrostatic potential surfaces. Our studies provide a basis for, unravelling the role of these differences in relation to the known, differences in the receptor sites on the voltage sensitive sodium channel, for the alpha- and beta-neurotoxins.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SCXI_CENSC SCXI_CENSC] Beta toxins bind voltage-independently at site-4 of sodium channels (Nav) and shift the voltage of activation toward more negative potentials thereby affecting sodium channel activation and promoting spontaneous and repetitive firing. Affects channels from chicken and frog.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
We report the detailed solution structure of the 7.2 kDa protein CsE-I, a beta-neurotoxin from the New World scorpion Centruroides sculpturatus Ewing. This toxin binds to sodium channels, but unlike the alpha-neurotoxins, shifts the voltage of activation toward more negative potentials causing the membrane to fire spontaneously. Sequence-specific proton NMR assignments were made using 600 MHz 2D-NMR data. Distance geometry and dynamical simulated annealing refinements were performed using experimental distance and torsion angle constraints from NOESY and pH-COSY data. A family of 40 structures without constraint violations was generated, and an energy-minimized average structure was computed. The backbone conformation of the CsE-I toxin shows similar secondary structural features as the prototypical alpha-neurotoxin, CsE-v3, and is characterized by a short 2(1/2)-turn alpha-helix and a 3-strand antiparallel beta-sheet, both held together by disulfide bridges. The RMSD for the backbone atoms between CsE-I and CsE-v3 is 1.48 A. Despite this similarity in the overall backbone folding, the these two proteins show some important differences in the primary structure (sequence) and electrostatic potential surfaces. Our studies provide a basis for unravelling the role of these differences in relation to the known differences in the receptor sites on the voltage sensitive sodium channel for the alpha- and beta-neurotoxins.
