| Specific Function
| Snake venom phospholipase A2 that causes internal bleeding, shows very strong anticoagulant activities and inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation (PubMed:21185324). Shows very low cytotoxicity (PubMed:21185324). Is not able (or very weakly) to suppress the acetylcholine (ACh)-evoked current mediated by alpha-7-similar nAChRs in L.stagnalis neurons (IC(50)>30 uM) and to compete with alpha-bungarotoxin for binding to muscle- and alpha-7 neuronal nAChR types, as well as to AChBPs (PubMed:25522251). In inhibition of alpha-bungarotoxin binding, this toxin is similarly active against T.californica nAChR (IC(50)>100 uM), human alpha-7 nAChR (IC(50)=29 uM), and L.stagnalis AChBP (IC(50)>30 uM) (PubMed:25522251). |
