Does not have antimicrobial activity against neither Gram-positive bacteria (A.globiformis VKM Ac-1112 (MIC>70 uM), and B.subtilis VKM B-501 (MIC>70 uM)), nor Gram-negative bacteria (E.coli DH5-alpha (MIC>70 uM), E.coli MH1 (MIC>70 uM), and P.aeruginosa PAO1 (MIC>70 uM)), nor yeasts (P.pastoris GS115 (MIC>70 uM), and S.cerevisiae Y190 (MIC>70 uM)). Does not have hemolytic activity against rabbit erythrocytes. However, it causes some conductance changes in planar bilayer membranes, without membrane rupture, suggesting a cytolytic function on other biological targets. It causes paralysis, but is not lethal when injected into insect (M.domestica) larvae. Expressed by the venom gland. The mature peptides (45-79 and 84-116) probably form alpha-helices which disrupt target cell membranes. Cleavage of the propeptide depends on the processing quadruplet motif (XXXR, with at least one of X being E). M-zodatoxin-Lt6a. Belongs to the cationic peptide 03 (latarcin) family. 06 subfamily.
