Effects on muscle of a toxin from indian cobra (Naja naja naja) venom

Toxicon, 1982
The mode of action of a purified toxin from Naja naja naja (Indian cobra) venom was investigated in frog rectus abdominis muscle, chick biventer cervicis muscle, cat tibialis anterior muscle (close-arterial) and in both innervated and denervated rat diaphragm muscle preparations.

Peripheral versus central action of a toxin from indian cobra (Naja naja naja) venom

Toxicon, 1981
Abstract A homogeneous toxin (NT fraction) purified from Indian cobra venom produced (at 0·25–1·0 mg/kg) predominant respiratory paralysis prior to any effect on the contractions of tibialis anterior muscle (cats) and gastrocnemius muscle (rabbits). NT fraction produced no direct effects on cardiovascular system or nerve action potential.

Source of carbohydrate in a toxic protein from Indian cobra (Naja naja naja) venom

Toxicon, 1981
Abstract The principal neurotoxin of Indian cobra venom has been investigated to locate the source of carbohydrate present in it. The data indicate that the neurotoxin is not a glycoprotein, but contaminated with extraneous carbohydrate particles which might have originated from the cellulose or dextran medium employed in the purification procedures.

Enzymatic activities of Malayan cobra (Naja naja sputatrix) venoms

Toxicon, 1987
The enzymatic activities of four samples of Malayan cobra venom were investigated. There was significant variation in the contents of L-amino acid oxidase, alkaline phosphomonoesterase, acetylcholinesterase, phospholipase A, 5'-nucleotidase and hyaluronidase. The phosphodiesterase content was, however, constant.

Solution structure of cardiotoxin V from Naja naja atra

Biochemistry, 1993
Cardiotoxins are small proteins that are found in the venoms of snakes from the Elapidae family. These toxins are known to bind to and disrupt the organization, integrity, and function of the cell membrane. Most of the well-studied cardiotoxins cause depolarization of membrane potentials and/or lysis of red cells. In contrast, CTX V from Naja naja atra

l-Amino acid oxidase from Naja naja oxiana venom

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2008
A new l-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) was isolated from the Central Asian cobra Naja naja oxiana venom by size exclusion, ion exchange and hydrophobic chromatography. The N-terminal sequence and the internal peptide sequences share high similarity with other snake venom l-amino acid oxidases, especially with those isolated from elapid venoms. The enzyme is
