Biochem/physiol Actions
GABAA receptor antagonist; binds to the GABA receptor-linked Cl? channel.
Enzyme inhibitor
These neurotoxic GABAA receptor antagonists, consisting of a nearly 1:1
mixture of picrotoxinin, (FW = 292.29 g/mol; CAS 17617-45-7) and
picrotin (FW = 310.30 g/mol; CAS 124-87-8), is a bitter-tasting (hence the
Greek prefix picros) principle, also known as cocculin, from fishberry seeds
(Anamirta cocculus) and the Philippine bayating (Tinomiscium
philippinense). Picrotoxin binds to the chloride channel of the receptor
without displacing g-aminobutyric acid. Picrotoxin is highly toxic,
exerting both stimulant and convulsant effects, and care must be exercised
when handling this agent.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 17617-45-7 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,7,6,1 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 5 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 17617-45:
(7*1)+(6*7)+(5*6)+(4*1)+(3*7)+(2*4)+(1*5)=117
117 % 10 = 7
So 17617-45-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
