RT "Vespakinin-M, a novel bradykinin analogue containing hydroxyproline, in
RT the venom of Vespa mandarinia Smith.";
RL Chem. Pharm. Bull. 24:2896-2897(1976).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Bradykinins are a potent but short-lived agent of arteriolar
CC dilation and increased capillary permeability (By similarity). May
CC target bradykinin receptors (BDKRB). May cause hypotension.
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1017116}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:1017116}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bradykinin-related peptide family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
