BioMed Research International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Envenomations by snakes represent a neglected health problem in tropical and subtropical countries. In South America, Lachesis muta occasionally causes severe human envenomation, with treatment being conditioned to an unspecific antivenom. In this work, we examined the neutralizing ability of Coutarea hexandra stem bark hydroalcoholic extract (Ch‐E ...

Kinetic characterization of gyroxin, a serine protease from Crotalus durissus terrificus venom
Biochimie, 2012 This work describes for the first time the characterization of the enzymatic features of gyroxin, a serine protease from Crotalus durissus terrificus venom, capable to induce barrel rotation syndrome in rodents. Measuring the hydrolysis of the substrate ZFR-MCA, the optimal pH for proteolytic cleavage of gyroxin was found to be at pH 8.4.
