Smartox生物素ProTx-I电压门控钠通道和T型Cav的阻断剂毒素I（ProTx-1；β-theraphotoxin-Tp1a） 是一种毒素，最初是从Prixopelma pruriens（秘鲁绿色天鹅绒狼蛛）的毒液中分离出来的。此毒素可逆地抑制抗河豚毒素（TTX）的通道 Na v 1.8（IC 50 = 27 nM）和 Na v 1.2，Na v 1.5和Na v 1.7 ，IC 50 值为50至100 nM。此外， ProTx-I 改变了T型Ca v 3.1通道的电压依赖性活动 （IC 50 = 50 nM），而不会影响灭活的电压依赖性。生物素ProTx-I是ProTx-I的生物素标签版本。
