Purification and partial characterization of two phospholipases A2 from Bothrops leucurus (white-tailed-jararaca) snake venom
چکیده انگلیسی

Two proteins with phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity were purified to homogeneity from Bothrops leucurus (white-tailed-jararaca) snake venom through three chromatographic steps: Conventional gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200, ion-exchange on Q-Sepharose and reverse phase on Vydac C4 HPLC column. The molecular mass for both enzymes was estimated to be approximately 14 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The N-terminal sequences (48 residues) show that one enzyme presents lysine at position 48 and the other an aspartic acid in this position, and therefore they were designated blK-PLA2 and blD-PLA2 respectively. blK-PLA2 presented negligible levels of PLA2 activity as compared to that of blD-PLA2. The PLA2 activity of both enzymes is Ca2+-dependent. blD-PLA2 did not have any effect upon platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid, ADP or collagen, but strongly inhibits coagulation and is able to stimulate Ehrlich tumor growth but not angiogenesis.
