Activity
Neurotoxin
FUNCTION: Insect-specific toxin that probably acts as an inhibitor of presynaptic insect calcium channels, presumably Cav2 subtype. In vivo, induces immediate paralysis on insects, followed by death when high doses are injected. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26611444}.
Target
voltage-gated calcium channel (Cav)
