The scorpion Toxin Tf2 from Tityus fasciolatus Promotes Nav1.3 opening [PDF]
, 2015 We identified Tf2, the first β-scorpion toxin from the venom of the Brazilian scorpion Tityus fasciolatus. Tf2 is identical to Tb2-II found in Tityus bahiensis.We found that Tf2 selectively activates human (h)Nav1.3, a neuronal voltage-gated sodium (Nav)
