CC -!- FUNCTION: Critical allergen and main toxic protein of C.quadrigatus
CC venom (PubMed:26201970). Has potent hemolytic activity
CC (PubMed:11866126). Is lethal to crayfish (PubMed:11866126). Causes
CC cutaneous inflammation in humans (PubMed:26201970). May act as a pore-
CC forming toxin, disrupting normal transmembrane ion concentration
CC gradients in susceptible cells (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9GV72, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11866126,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970}.
CC -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC Temperature dependence:
CC Heat-stable protein that continues to cause erythematous skin
CC eruption in the patient and to recognize IgE after heating.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970};
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11866126,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970}. Nematocyst {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11866126,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970}. Target cell membrane {ECO:0000250}.
CC Note=Forms a membrane channel in the prey. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: Contains disulfide bonds. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- PTM: N-glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970}.
CC -!- ALLERGEN: Causes an allergic reaction in human. Binds to IgE and
CC IgG(4). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26201970}.
CC -!- TOXIC DOSE: LD(50) is 80 ug/kg by intraperitoneal injection into
CC crayfish. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11866126}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the jellyfish toxin family. Type I subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
