| structural and functional characterization of bnsp-7, a lys49 myotoxic phospholipase a(2) homologue from bothrops neuwiedi pauloensis venom. | bnsp-7, a lys49 myotoxic phospholipase a(2) homologue from bothrops neuwiedi pauloensis venom, was structurally and functionally characterized. several biological activities were assayed and compared with those of the chemically modified toxin involving specific amino acid residues. the cdna produced from the total rna by rt-pcr contained approximately 400 bp which codified its 121 amino acid residues with a calculated pi and molecular weight of 8.9 and 13,727, respectively. its amino acid seque ... | 2000 | 10860537 |
