Structural and functional characterization of myotoxin I, a Lys49 phospholipase A(2) homologue from Bothrops moojeni (Caissaca) snake venom
(2000-01-01)
Myotoxin-I (MjTX-I) was purified to homogeneity from the venom of Bothrops moojeni by ion-exchange chromatography on CM-Sepharose. Its molecular weight, estimated by SDS–PAGE, was 13,400 (reduced) or 26,000 (unreduced). ...
Automated Video-Image Analysis of Behavioral Asymmetries
(1995)
The analysis of behavioral asymmetries is a widely employed approach to investigate behavior in relation to functions of the brain. Out of the repertory of presently available measures, turning behavior is probably the one ...
Medicinal plants with inhibitory properties against snake venoms
(2005)
Envenomations due to snake bites are commonly treated by parenteral administration of horse or
sheep-derived polyclonal antivenoms aimed at the neutralization of toxins. However, despite the widespread
success of this ...
Identification of New Snake Venom Metalloproteinase Inhibitors Using Compound Screening and Rational Peptide Design
(2012)
The majority of snakebite envenomations in Central America are caused by the viperid species Bothrops asper, whose venom contains a high proportion of zinc-dependent metalloproteinases that play a relevant role in the ...
Pharmacological modulation of edema induced by Lys-49 and Asp-49 myotoxic phospholipases A2 isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper (terciopelo)
(1998-12)
The pharmacological modulation of edema-forming activity of Bothrops asper myotoxins II and III, Lys-49 and Asp-49 phospholipases A2, respectively, was studied plethysmographically in the mouse foot pad model. Myotoxin III ...
Tropical Intraseasonal Modes of the Atmosphere
(Reviews In Advance. vol 39: 5.1–5.27, 2014-08-06)
Tropical intraseasonal variability (TISV) of the atmosphere describes the coherent variability in basic state variables, including pressure, wind, temperature, and humidity, as well as in the physical phenomena associated ...
Kinetics of mass loss of arabica coffee during roasting process
(2016-03)
Roasting is one of the most complex coffee processing steps due to simultaneous transfers of heat and mass. During this process, beans lose mass because of fast physical and chemical changes that will set color and flavor ...
Snake population venomics and antivenomics of Bothrops atrox: Paedomorphism along its transamazonian dispersal and implications of geographic venom variability on snakebite management
(2011-04-11)
We describe two geographically differentiated venom phenotypes across the wide distribution range of Bothrops atrox, from the Colombian Magdalena Medio Valley through Puerto Ayacucho and El Paují, in the Venezuelan States ...
