Tyr→Trp-substituted peptide 115-129 of a Lys49 phospholipase A2 expresses enhanced membrane-damaging activities and reproduces its in vivo myotoxic effect
(1999)
Myotoxin II is a group II Lys49 phospholipase A2 (PLA2) isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper. Previous
studies on a synthetic peptide derived from its heparin-binding, cationic/hydrophobic sequence 115^129 ...
Antimicrobial activity of myotoxic phospholipases A2 from crotalid snake venoms and synthetic peptide variants derived from their C-terminal region
(2005)
A short peptide derived from the C-terminal region of Bothrops asper myotoxin II, a Lys49 phospholipase A2 (PLA2), was
previously found to reproduce the bactericidal activity of its parent molecule. In this study, a panel ...
