RT   "Two new bradykinin-related peptides from the venom of the social wasp
RT   Protopolybia exigua (Saussure).";
RL   Peptides 27:2632-2639(2006).
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Shows a high potency in mast cell degranulation (is 10-fold
CC       more potent than bradykinin). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16815592}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16815592}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC       {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16815592}.
CC   -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=2202.7; Method=Electrospray;
CC       Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16815592};
CC   -!- TOXIC DOSE: Dose that causes degranulation of mast cells (ED(50)) is 10
CC       uM. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16815592}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Does not provoke rat ileum muscle constriction and does
CC       not show algesic effects. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16815592}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bradykinin-related peptide family.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
