Tamapin (TFA)
Tamapin TFA is a venom peptide, targeting to small conductance Ca (2+) -activated K (+) (SK) channels. Tamapin TFA is a selctive blocker of SK2 (Potassium Channel) . Tamapin TFA inhibits SK channel-mediated currents in pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus. Tamapin TFA can be isolated from the Indian red scorpion (Mesobuthus tamulus) [1].
