  • Title: Biophysical properties and amino acid composition of Bothrops protease A, a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops jararaca (jararaca).
    Author: Reichl AP, Assakura MT, Mandelbaum FR.
    Journal: Toxicon; 1983; 21(3):421-7. PubMed ID: 6353665.
    Abstract:
    Bothrops protease A, an arginine-ester hydrolase, is active on protamine, gelatin and insulin and was isolated from the venom of Bothrops jararaca in a homogeneous state, as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugal analyses. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 65,000 and a pI of 3.55. The enzyme is a glycoprotein whose amino acid content corresponds to 55% of the molecular weight.
