CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1509496}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:1509496}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Co-purifies with alpha-latrotoxin-Lt1a.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1509496}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the arthropod CHH/MIH/GIH/VIH hormone family.
