CC   -!- FUNCTION: Maximin-8 shows antimicrobial activity against bacteria and
CC       against the fungus C.albicans. It has little hemolytic activity (By
CC       similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Maximin-H7 shows antimicrobial activity against bacteria and
CC       against the fungus C.albicans. Shows strong hemolytic activity (By
CC       similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the skin glands.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bombinin family. {ECO:0000305}.
