Amino Acid Sequence
General description
Apamin is a bee venom component and is strongly basic in nature. It has 18 amino acid residues and two disulphide bonds.
Application
- As a selective inhibitor of small conductance (SKCa) channels in HEK cells.
- To inhibit endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDHF) mediated responses.
- To block small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+current (/SK) in electrophysiological studies in hyperstriatum ventrale, pars caudalis (HVc) neurons.
- as a standard for determination of content and compositions of bee venom by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
