Stimulates insulin release (PubMed:15257102). This activity may protect the species from being eaten by predators by causing fatal hypoglycemia (PubMed:15257102). Possesses a potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (By similarity). Probably acts by disturbing membrane functions with its amphipathic structure (By similarity). Has hemolytic activity (By similarity). Expressed by the skin glands. The primary structure of this peptide is identical to that of Dermaseptin-B4 from Phyllomedusa bicolor (AC P81486), and Dermaseptin-2 from P.tarsius (AC P84922). However, this peptide is not amidated, in contrast to the two mentionned peptides. Belongs to the frog skin active peptide (FSAP) family. Dermaseptin subfamily.
