Circular Dichroism of Elapidae Protein Toxins
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1980The effect of temperature variation on the circular dichroic spectra of four Elapid snake toxins (one short neurotoxin, two long neurotoxins and one cytotoxin) was determined and the results compared.The three neurotoxins have in common a delicately balanced conformation which can be perturbed independently of the predominant secondary structuring ...

Molecular evolution of toxin genes in Elapidae snakes
Molecular Diversity, 2006The venom of the sea krait, Laticauda semifasciata, consists primarily of two toxic proteins, phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and a three-finger-structure toxin. We have cloned both toxic protein genes, including the upstream region. PLA(2) genes contain three types of inserted sequences: an AG-rich region, a chicken repeat 1-like long interspersed ...

Neostigmine in the Treatment of Elapidae Bites
1976A high rate of mortality in the patients brought to the hospital with neuroparalytic snake venom poisoning, a close resemblance of the clinical picture to that of myasthenic crisis or curare poisoning, and a dramatic response to neostigmine therapy in our first case prompted us to undertake a therapeutic evaluation of anticholinesterase in Elapidae ...

On the ‘spitting’ behaviour in cobras (Serpentes: Elapidae)
Journal of Zoology, 1995Spitting' behaviour was examined in selected taxa of Naja and Hemachatus. A description of the kinematics and variations of spitting in each species was generated from the analysis of videotape records of over 400 spits. Interspecific variation was noted in the spitting behaviour.

Phylogenetic relationships within laticaudine sea snakes (Elapidae)
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2011The sea snake subfamily Laticaudinae consists of a single genus with eight named species, based on morphological characters. We used microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data to clarify the adaptive radiation of these oviparous sea snakes in the South Pacific, with special reference to New Caledonia and Vanuatu.

Elapidae Toxins: The Fasciculins, and their Interaction with Acetylcholinesterase
2000Fasciculins, isolated from the venom of mambas (genus, Dendroaspis), are named after the long-lasting muscle fasciculations they produce in mice (Rodriguez-Ithurralde et al., 1983). They are potent and selective inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChEl:EC 3.1.1.7) (Karlsson et al., 1984 Harvey et al., 1984).
