Various peptide toxins in animal venom inhibit voltage-gated sodium ion channel Nav1.7, including Nav-targeting spider toxin (NaSpTx) Family I. Toxins in NaSpTx Family I share a similar structure, i.e., N-terminal, loops 1–4, and C-terminal. Here, we used Mu-theraphotoxin-Ca2a (Ca2a), a peptide isolated from Cyriopagopus albostriatus, as a template to investigate the general properties of toxins in NaSpTx Family I. The toxins interacted with the cell membrane prior to binding to Nav1.7 via similar hydrophobic residues. Residues in loop 1, loop 4, and the C-terminal primarily interacted with the S3–S4 linker of domain II, especially basic amino acids binding to E818. We also identified the critical role of loop 2 in Ca2a regarding its affinity to Nav1.7. Our results provide further evidence that NaSpTx Family I toxins share similar structures and mechanisms of binding to Nav1.7.
