RT from spider venom.";
RL Biochem. J. 411:687-696(2008).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Insecticidal, cytolytic and antimicrobial peptide. Has
CC insecticidal activity against the flesh fly S.carnaria. Has
CC antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria E.coli. Forms
CC voltage-dependent, ion-permeable channels in membranes. At high
CC concentration causes cell membrane lysis.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18215128}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18215128}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18215128}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cationic peptide 06 (cytoinsectotoxin)
CC family. {ECO:0000305}.
