CC -!- FUNCTION: At high concentrations, acts as pore former in cellular
CC membranes and causes the leakage of the cells. At submicromolar
CC concentrations, degranulates granulocytes and has a weak hemolytic
CC activity against human red blood cells. Also strongly inhibits the
CC production of superoxide anions. Has a strong antibacterial activity
CC against Gram-negative bacteria but is less active against Gram-positive
CC bacteria. Also has antifungal activity. Induces reversible G-protein
CC dependent Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores and increase Ca(2+)
CC influx in HL-60 cells. Induces the activation of the Rac pathway in
CC granulocytes. Synergistically enhances the excitatory effects of short
CC and long chain ion-channel-specific neurotoxins by interaction with the
CC neuronal membranes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12354111,

CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}. Target cell
CC membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12354111, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12457879}.
CC Note=Forms a helical membrane channel in the prey.

CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=5030.3; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|Ref.1};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the non-disulfide-bridged peptide (NDBP)
CC superfamily. Long chain multifunctional peptide (group 2) family.
