CC   -!- FUNCTION: This heterodimer has insecticidal and cytotoxic properties
CC       (PubMed:33344898). Induces immediate paralysis when injected into
CC       blowflies (Lucilia cuprina), and then death within 24 hours
CC       (PubMed:33344898). Also inhibits the growth of Aedes albopictus
CC       mosquito C6/36 cells (PubMed:33344898). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer composed of subunit A and subunit B (DELTA-PSDTX-
CC       Pp1a); disulfide-linked. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- TOXIC DOSE: Heterodimer (A and B chains): PD(50) is 2.5 nmol/g in sheep
CC       blowflies (Lucilia cuprina) (at 0.5 hours post-injection).
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- TOXIC DOSE: Heterodimer (A and B chains): LD(50) is 3.0 nmol/g by
CC       injection into the ventro-lateral thorax of sheep blowflies (Lucilia
CC       cuprina). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- TOXIC DOSE: Heterodimer (A and B chains): LD(50) is 1.04 um/ml in Aedes
CC       albopictus mosquito C6/36 cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Electrospray ionization experiments give a mass of
CC       6598.6 Da for DELTA-pseudomyrmecitoxin-Pp1a heterodimer (subunits A+B).
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33344898}.
