Phospholipases A2 constitute the major components from Bothrops snake venoms and have
been extensively investigated not only because they are relatively very abundant in these …

This article reports the purification procedure and the biochemical/functional
characterization of Bp-PLA2, a new myotoxic acidic phospholipase A2 from Bothrops …

Venom phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes share similarity in structure and catalytic function
with mammalian enzymes. However, in contrast to mammalian enzymes, many are toxic and …

Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are commonly found in snake venoms from Viperidae,
Hydrophidae and Elaphidae families and have been extensively studied due to their …

The carboxylate groups in an acidic and in a basic phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2) enzyme,
purified, respectively, from Naja naja atra and Naja nigricollis snake venoms, were modified …

The enzyme phospholipase A2 (EC 3.1. 1.4; PLA2) is widely distributed among various
species in the animal kingdom, notably in the pancreatic tissues of mammals and animal …

Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are abundant components of snake venoms, where they play
toxic and digestive roles. Despite having a similar three-dimensional structure, venom …

Phospholipases A2 enzymes are found in many biological sources, including snake
venoms. Here we reviewed aspects of PLA2s including biological and structural features …

Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) from snake venoms comprise a group of 14-18 kDa proteins,
responsible for several toxic effects induced by the whole venom. Considering this, studies …
