Snake venom phospholipases A2 (PLA2) show a remarkable functional diversity. Among
their toxic activities, some display the ability to cause rapid necrosis of skeletal muscle fibers …

Crotoxin, the main toxin of South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus terrificus) venom,
was the first snake venom protein to be purified and crystallized. Crotoxin is a heterodimeric …

In Brazil, the Crotalus durissus terrificus subspecie is the most studied, particularly
concerning its crotoxin. Crotoxin is the major toxic component of the South American …

A new PLA2 (Cdcum6) from crotoxin complex of Colombian Crotalus durissus cumanensis
rattlesnake was purified using molecular exclusion chromatography and RP-HPLC. The …

We isolated a new PLA2 from the Crotalus durissus terrificus venom that designated F15,
which showed allosteric behavior with a Vmax of 8.5 nmol/min/mg and a Km of 38.5 mM …

BmTX-I, an Asp49 phospholipase A2, was purified from Bothrops moojeni venom after only
one chromatographic step using reverse-phase HPLC on μ-Bondapak C-18 column. A …

A crotoxin homolog was purified from the Crotalus durissus collilineatus venom using
molecular exclusion and reverse-phase HPLC. This crotoxin contained one PLA 2 (Cdcolli III …

Many isolated compounds from endophytic fungus have been useful to human beings,
mainly those with medicinal applications and particularly those that can be used in …

Snake venoms contain saccharide-binding lectins. In this work, we examined the biological
activities of a lectin (BjcuL) purified from Bothrops jararacussu snake venom by …

The venom of Crotalus durissus terrificus was fractionated by reverse-phase HPLC to obtain
crotapotins (F5 and F7) and PLA 2 (F15, F16, and F17) of high purity. The phospholipases A …
