Crotalid Snake Venom Subproteomes Unraveled by the Antiophidic Protein DM43
Journal of Proteome Research, 2009Snake venoms are mixtures of proteins and peptides with different biological activities, many of which are very toxic. Several animals, including the opossum Didelphis aurita, are resistant to snake venoms due to the presence of neutralizing factors in their blood. An antihemorrhagic protein named DM43 was isolated from opossum serum. It inhibits snake

Effects of Crotalid Venom on North American Snakes
Copeia, 1942A LTHOUGH the question of the susceptibility of snakes to their own venom, or to venom of other species, has been of interest for some time, relatively little experimental work has been undertaken in this field. Most reports in the literature cite examples in which one snake was seen to bite another.

Ophthalmic Exposure to Crotalid Venom
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2009Crotalid venom exposure to the eye is uncommon. A 40-year-old woman sustained an accidental mucus membrane exposure of rattlesnake venom to her face and right eye. She was successfully treated with irrigation, topical antibiotics, and intravenous crotalid antivenin.

Some California ground squirrels (Spermophilus beecheyi) show limited necrosis following envenomation by northern Pacific rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis oreganus). This study demonstrates that S. beecheyi blood sera inhibits venom proteases. Sera from rattlesnake-abundant habitats inhibited C. v.

Crotalid venom vascular endothelial growth factors has preferential affinity for VEGFR-1
Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005SummaryPm-VEGF, a novel member ofVEGF family from the venom gland of Taiwan habu (Protobothrops mucrosquamatu), is a disulfidelinked homodimer with 119 amino acid residues. Recombinant fusion Pm-VEGF was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified and refolded.

Surgical technique for isolation of the main venom gland of viperid, crotalid and elapid snakes
Toxicon, 1973Abstract The main venom glands of venomous snakes were isolated in situ by a harmless surgical technique. The surgery had no apparent effect on the snakes' appearance, disposition or feeding habits more than 2 years after surgery. The snake, after surgery, could serve as an excellent preparation for studying the venom secretory process in the main ...

The binding of Antivenom (Crotalidae) Polyvalent to fractions from crude venoms of eight crotalid and one viperid snake, obtained by high performance size-exclusion chromatography, was determined with an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Most of the large (greater than 30,000 mol.

The Clinical Problem of Crotalid Snake Venom Poisoning
1979Bites by snakes of the family Crotalidae are usually medical emergencies requiring immediate attention and the exercise of considerable judgment. Delayed or inadequate treatment may result in undue harm to the patient and may result in tragic consequences.

The Mechanism of Snake Venom Actions—Rattlesnakes and Other Crotalids
1971Of the nearly 2000 different types of snakes that exist, about 300 are known to be venomous. The venomous snakes are classified according to morphological characteristics and comprise five families: Crotalidae (crotalid), Viperidae (viperid), Elapidae (elapid), Hydrophiidae (sea-snakes), and Colubridae (colubrid).

We have developed a simple two-step procedure for the separation of monomeric (14,000 mol. wt) and dimeric (28,000 mol. wt) phospholipases A2 from the venoms of Crotalidae family snakes. All venom phospholipases A2 studied thus far exist as monomers under acidic conditions and are chromatographed as such on a column of G-50 Sephadex (superfine ...
