CC   -!- FUNCTION: Mast cell degranulating peptide. Has little hemolytic
CC       activity. Shows antimicrobial activity against the Gram-negative
CC       bacteria E.coli ATCC 25922 (MIC=7.5 ug/ml), the Gram-positive bacteria
CC       S.aureus ATCC 2592 (MIC=3.7 ug/ml) and the fungus C.albicans ATCC 2002
CC       (MIC=3.7 ug/ml). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17046111}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=1554.8; Method=FAB;
CC       Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16330062};
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MCD family. Mastoparan subfamily.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
