Venom‐derived peptide diversity from Naja mandalayensis reveals bioactive subfractions capable of modulating neuronal oxidative stress responses. Integration of RP‐HPLC fractionation and proteomics identifies toxin families associated with improved mitochondrial function and cellular integrity in mHippoE‐18 cells, supporting venoms as a platform for ...

Elapid snake envenomation in horses: 52 cases (2006–2016) [PDF]
Summary Background Snake envenomation is a cause of morbidity and mortality in domestic animals worldwide. The clinical features of crotalid snake (pit viper) envenomation are widely reported and well described in horses but elapid snake envenomation is poorly characterised.

The crystal structure of an Asp49 phospholipase A2 from L. muta is reported, revealing a tetrameric assembly, catalytic conservation and a polarized electrostatic surface potentially linked to membrane targeting.Snake‐venom phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are small, structurally conserved enzymes that contribute significantly to the pathophysiology of ...

Snake Venom Protease Detection and Inhibition in Serum
A fluorescence assay enables sensitive detection of the activities of snake venom metalloproteases (SVMP) and serine proteases (SVSP) from viper venoms in buffer and serum. In combination with effective low‐molecular‐weight inhibitors such as ilomastat and nafamostat, this approach offers new prospects for the rapid diagnosis and adjunctive therapy of ...

Sea snakes and their relationship to other Elapid snake genera.
Note that the the “true” sea snakes (Hydrophiinae and Laticaudinae) are not closely related but nest within the terrestrial elapids. Generic names represent multiple species.

Elapid venom toxins: multiple recruitments of ancient scaffolds [PDF]
Nigroxins A and B, two myotoxic phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) from the venom of the American elapid Micrurus nigrocinctus, belong to a new PLA2 subclass. Their primary structures were established and compared with those of PLA2s that have already been studied with respect to myotoxic activity.
