The many dimeric faces of Lys49 PLA2‐like proteins: Conformational plasticity and membrane binding drive functional dimer states

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Lys49 secreted phospholipase A2‐like proteins (sPLA2s) are major myotoxins in viperid snake venoms, causing rapid muscle damage in envenomation. Beyond their clinical relevance, these small non‐catalytic proteins provide a model to study how quaternary structure and conformational dynamics enable catalysis‐independent membrane disruption ...

Unveiling the Leishmanicidal Mechanism of 4‐Nerolidylcatechol Isolated From Piper peltatum Against Leishmania infantum

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study assessed the leishmanicidal activity of 4‐nerolidylcatechol (4‐NC) (1) isolated from Piper peltatum leaves against promastigotes and amastigotes of Leishmania amazonensis, L. braziliensis, and L. infantum. The plant was fractionated, leading to the isolation and chemical identification of 4‐NC (1). Biochemical techniques were

Isolation of basic myotoxins from Bothrops Moojeni and Bothrops Atrox snake venoms

Toxicon, 1990
Three myotoxins, one from the venom of Bothrops atrox and two from the venom of B. moojeni, were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex C-25. The three toxins are basic proteins with an estimated mol. wt of about 13,500, and similar amino acid compositions.
