Biochemical, Pharmacological, and Structural Characterization of New Basic PLA2 Bbil‐TX from Bothriopsis bilineata Snake Venom

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Bbil‐TX, a PLA2, was purified from Bothriopsis bilineata snake venom after only one chromatographic step using RP‐HPLC on μ‐Bondapak C‐18 column. A molecular mass of 14243.8 Da was confirmed by Q‐Tof Ultima API ESI/MS (TOF MS mode) mass spectrometry. The partial protein sequence obtained was then submitted to BLASTp, with the search restricted to PLA2 ...

Assay of phospholipases A2 and their inhibitors by kinetic analysis in the scooting mode

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 85-100, 1992., 1992
Several cellular processes are regulated by interfacial catalysis on biomembrane surfaces. Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) are interesting not only as prototypes for interfacial catalysis, but also because they mobilize precursors for the biosynthesis of eicosanoids and platelet activating factor, and these agents ultimately control a wide range of secretory ...

Bacterial Adaptation to Venom in Snakes and Arachnida [PDF]

, 2022
Animal venoms are considered sterile sources of antimicrobial compounds with strong membrane-disrupting activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, venomous bite wound infections are common in developing nations.

Epidemiology and characteristics of coral snake bites reported to the National Poison Data System (2006‒2022)

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Objectives North American coral snake envenomations can result in life‐threatening neurotoxicity. Their bites are relatively rare, making large studies difficult. Using the National Poison Data System (NPDS), we sought to investigate the epidemiological trends and clinical outcomes associated with North American coral snake bites over a 17 ...
