CC -!- FUNCTION: This venom insulin facilitates prey capture by rapidly
CC inducing hypoglycemic shock. It is one of the smallest known insulin
CC found in nature and lacks the C-terminal segment of the B chain that,
CC in human insulin, mediates engagement of the insulin receptor and
CC assembly of the hormone's hexameric storage form. Despite lacking this
CC segment, it both binds and activates human insulin receptor (long
CC isoform (HIR-B)) with only a 10-fold lower potency. In vivo,
CC intraperitoneal injection of this peptide into zebrafish lowers blood
CC glucose with the same potency than human insulin. In addition, when
CC applied to water, this peptide reduces overall locomotor activity of
CC zebrafish larvae, observed as a significant decrease in the percentage
CC of time spent swimming and movement frequency.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A0A0B5AC95}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of A and B chains; disulfide-linked.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A0A0B5AC95}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A0A0B5AC95}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:25605914}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the insulin family.
