CC   -!- FUNCTION: As this protein is expressed upon bacterial infection, it may
CC       have antimicrobial activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16857061}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Only expressed in fat body.
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16857061}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By bacteria (E.coli and M.luteus).
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16857061}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cecropin family. {ECO:0000305}.
