Abstract
⺠Two serine proteinases were characterized from Crotalus durissus cumanensis venom. ⺠These enzymes differ in their pharmacological spectrum of activities. ⺠Toxins showed coagulant activity on human plasma. ⺠They lacked hemorrhagic and myotoxic activities, but induced defibrin(ogen)ation. ⺠These enzymes potentiate the hemorrhagic activity of a metalloproteinase.
