CC -!- FUNCTION: Linear cationic alpha-helical peptide that acts as
CC antimicrobial peptide by forming pore in membrane. Has antibacterial
CC activities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. Has
CC more potent activities against the yeast C.albicans. Shows moderate
CC mast cell degranulation and leishmanicidal activities. Has a very low
CC hemolytic activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21549739}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21549739}. Target
CC cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21549739}. Note=Assumes an
CC amphipathic alpha-helical conformation in a lipid environment. Forms a
CC membrane channel in the prey (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21549739}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MCD family. Eumenitin subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
