Apamin potently blocks ATP-type Ca+2-activated K+ channels SK1, SK2 and SK3 (low nM to sub-nM IC50), but is inactive against SK4. Apamin is used to elucidate the roles of SK channels in neurons and some cancer cells. It is a globular peptide with disulfide bridges between Cys1-Cys11 (SS1-11) and Cys3-Cys15 (SS3-15). \nReferences \n1. Blatz, A.L. and Magleby, K.L.
