CC -!- FUNCTION: Antibacterial peptide with activity against both Gram-
CC positive and Gram-negative bacteria probably by forming pores in the
CC cell membrane (By similarity). Has also weak hemolytic activity (By
CC similarity). Does not show antifungal activity (PubMed:27917162).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:I0DEB6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27917162}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}. Target cell membrane
CC {ECO:0000305}. Note=Forms an alpha-helical membrane channel in the
CC prey. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the non-disulfide-bridged peptide (NDBP)
CC superfamily. Short antimicrobial peptide (group 4) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
