CC       or N.gonorrhoeae. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7929322}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7929322}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By bacterial infection. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7929322}.
CC   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: [Apidaecin Bb +A]: Mass=1978.5; Method=MALDI;
CC       Note=Apidaecin Bb +A.; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:7929322};
CC   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: [Apidaecin Bb -A]: Mass=1907.8; Method=MALDI;
CC       Note=Apidaecin Bb - A.; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:7929322};
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the apidaecin family. {ECO:0000305}.
