RL   Eisei Dobutsu 39:105-111(1988).
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Induces smooth muscle contraction. May target bradykinin
CC       receptors (BDKRB). May cause hypotension. {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305|Ref.1}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bradykinin-related peptide family.
CC       {ECO:0000305}.
