Electrophysiology

Lyophilized from double distilled water (ddH2O). May contain TFA as a residual counter ion.

The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Centrifuge the vial (10,000 × g for 5 minutes) before adding solvent to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Gently tap, tilt, and roll the vial to aid dissolution. Avoid vigorous vortexing; light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity.

The product is shipped as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at -20°C. Protect from moisture.

Delta-theraphotoxin-Hm1a (Hm1a) is a peptide toxin originally isolated from Heteroscodra maculate tarantula venom. Initially described as a moderate-affinity KV4.1 blocker¹, later studies confirmed it primarily targets NaV1.1 voltage-gated sodium channels²,3. It interacts with extracellular loops connecting transmembrane segments 1-2 and 3-4 in domain IV voltage sensor of the channel to inhibit NaV1.1 fast inactivation2,3. Hm1a inhibits human NaV1.1 channel inactivation expressed in Xenopus oocytes with EC50 value of 38 ± 6 nM. Recent studies show Hm1a restores interneuron firing in Scn1a+/- mice, improving inhibition in Dravet Syndrome models⁴. Electrophysiology confirms it prolongs NaV1.1 activation with minimal effects on NaV1.2 and Na
