Biochemical, Pharmacological, and Structural Characterization of New Basic 𝐏𝐋𝐀_𝟐 Bbil-TX from Bothriopsis bilineata Snake Venom

Figure 4

Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence of the new PLA₂ Bbil-TX with PLA₂ presents in venom of Lachesis muta muta (accession number P0C8 M_1 and P0C942_1) [19] and Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus (Mojave rattlesnake) (accession number P62023). Nondetermined amino acid residues are indicated by (X); boxed amino acid residues are identical. The highlighted amino acid residues belong to PLA₂ conserved domain Ca²⁺-binding loop, the catalytic site, and the region β-wing.
