Neurotoxin
FUNCTION: Catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine with phospholipase A1 activity (3.6 U/ml) (PubMed:23159790). May act as an allergen and induce hemolytic activity (By similarity). In vivo, a mixture of this protein and Ves a 1.02 is able to paralyze crickets (PubMed:23159790). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0DMB7, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23159790}.
