A Lys49-PLA(2) myotoxin of Bothrops asper triggers a rapid death of macrophages that involves autocrine purinergic receptor signaling
Lys49-PLA(2) myotoxins, an important component of various viperid snake venoms, are a class of PLA(2)-homolog proteins deprived of catalytic activity. Similar to enzymatically active PLA(2) (Asp49) and to other classes of myotoxins, they cause severe myonecrosis. Moreover, these toxins are used as t...
