CC -!- FUNCTION: Insecticidal presynaptic neurotoxin that induces massive
CC neurotransmitter release at insect (but not vertebrate) neuromuscular
CC junctions. Native toxin forms cation-permeable pores (with high
CC permeability to calcium) in lipid membranes locust muscle membrane and
CC artificial lipid bilayers (By similarity). May bind to insect neurexin-
CC 1 homolog, insect adhesion G protein-coupled receptor L1 homolog, and
CC insect receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase S homolog, and
CC induces neurotransmitter exocytosis both by forming tetrameric pores in
CC membranes and signaling via G protein-coupled receptor (By similarity).
CC Oligomerization is a process independent of divalent cations (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23631,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q25338}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homotetramer in membrane. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q25338}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22001442}. Target
CC cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q25338}. Note=Forms a membrane
CC channel in the prey. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q25338}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:22001442}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Two helices (H2 and H8) are predicted to insert into membranes
CC and form pores by assembling into tetramers. The helices are contained
CC within a helical bundle domain that undergoes significant
CC conformational changes during pore formation to allow exposure of the
CC transmembrane helices and transition of the toxin from a soluble
CC monomer to a transmembrane tetramer. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9XZC0}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Iso and Leu residues are assigned by comparison with
CC orthologs.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cationic peptide 01 (latrotoxin) family. 04
CC (delta-latroinsectotoxin) subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
