Dendrotoxin-I (DTX-I) is a potent K+ channels blocker with IC50s of 0.13-50 nM for voltage-gated potassium channel subunits KV1.1, KV1.2 and KV1.6, respectively. Dendrotoxin-I, a neurotoxin, has the potential for cancer research[1][2][3].

Kv1.1: 0.13-50 nM (IC₅₀); Kv1.2: 0.13-50 nM (IC₅₀); Kv1.6: 0.13-50 nM (IC₅₀)
