General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes an oxidative deamination of predominantly hydrophobic and aromatic L-amino acids (the most specific substrate is L-Phe, followed by L-Met, L-Leu, L-Phe, L-Ile, L-Arg and L-His). Inhibits both ADP-induced platelet aggregation dose-dependently. Has an ability to induce apoptosis in cultured HeLa and K562 cells. May have an ability to induce hemorrhage. May have an antibacterial activity.
Catalytic activity	An L-amino acid + H(2)O + O(2) = a 2-oxo acid + NH(3) + H(2)O(2).
Cofactor	FAD By similarity.
Subunit structure	Homodimer.
Subcellular location	Secreted.
Tissue specificity	Expressed by the venom gland.
Post-translational modification	Glycosylated By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. FIG1 subfamily.
