Rapid Purification of a New P-I Class Metalloproteinase from Bothrops moojeni Venom with Antiplatelet Activity

Figure 2

Sequence alignments of the initial N-terminal of BmooMPα-II with other metalloproteinases from P-I SVMP. BmooMPα-I from B. moojeni (see [27], P85314.2); leucurolysin-a from B. leucurus (see [32], P84907.2); Bap1 from B. asper (see [33–35], 1ND1_A); BaTX-I from B. atrox (see [36], P0DJE1.1); BnP1 from Bothropoides pauloensis (see [37], P0C6S0.1). The highly conserved residues are in bold, and those conserved are highlighted in gray.
