Envenoming by Chinese krait (Bungarus multicinctus) and banded krait (B. fasciatus) in Myanmar
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1997A retrospective study of 8 cases of envenoming by Chinese krait (Bungarus multicinctus) and one banded krait (B. fasciatus) in southern Myanmar is reported. Chinese krait bite produced minimal local reactions, except in one person bitten on the lip which resulted in local swelling.

Phospholipase a dependent neurotoxins of the indian krait venom
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1976Summary The venom of the Indian Krait ( Bungarus coeruleus ) has been fractionated by column chromatography to give neurotoxins which seem to be dependent on phospholipase A.

Decreased Parasympathetic Activities in Malayan Krait (Bungarus candidus) Envenoming
Toxicon, 2001Three patients were bitten by the Malayan krait (Bungarus candidus). The patients developed ptosis and generalized muscle weakness which later progressed to respiratory paralysis. All patients showed evidence of decreased parasympathetic activity manifested by mydriasis, hypertension and tachycardia. No specific antivenom was available.

Differentially Expressed snoRNAs inBungarus Multicinctus(Taiwan Banded Krait)
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1998Twenty novel snoRNAs forming extensive sequence complementarities to mature 5S rRNA were identified from Bungarus multicinctus by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. It was found that the snoRNA species were differentially transcribed in different tissues as evidenced by single stranded conformational polymorphism analysis and direct ...

KChIP3: A binding protein for Taiwan banded krait β-bungarotoxin
Toxicon, 2006Using B1 chain of beta-bungarotoxin (beta-Bgt) as bait in yeast two-hybrid screen, we found that KChIP3 was a binding protein of B1 chain. Thus, protein-protein interaction between beta-Bgt and KChIP3 is investigated in the present study. Pull-down assay showed that recombinant KChIP3 proteins were associated with beta-Bgt as well as B1 chain, whereas ...

Thermal biology of sea snakes and sea kraits.
Integrative and comparative biology, 2012Temperature probably had no direct effect on the evolution of sea kraits within their center of origin, a geologically stable thermal zone straddling the equator, but may have indirectly affected expansions and contractions in distributions beyond that zone through global fluctuations that caused alternation of higher and lower sea levels. The northern
