Structural determinants of the hyperalgesic activity of myotoxic Lys49-phospholipase A(2)

BACKGROUND: Bothropstoxin-I (BthTx-I) is a Lys49-phospholipase A(2) (Lys49-PLA(2)) from the venom of Bothrops jararacussu, which despite of the lack of catalytic activity induces myotoxicity, inflammation and pain. The C-terminal region of the Lys49-PLA(2)s is important for these effects; however, t...
