An engineered scorpion toxin analogue with improved Kv1.3 selectivity displays reduced conformational flexibility
The voltage-gated Kv1.3 K(+) channel plays a key role in the activation of T lymphocytes. Kv1.3 blockers selectively suppress immune responses mediated by effector memory T cells, which indicates the great potential of selective Kv1.3 inhibitors in the therapy of certain autoimmune diseases. Anuroct...
