Snake venom serine proteinases: sequence homology vs. substrate specificity, a paradox to be solved.

Solange M T Serrano1, Rachid C Maroun.   

Abstract

Snake venom glands synthesize a variety of serine proteinases capable of affecting the haemostatic system. They act on macromolecular substrates of the coagulation, fibrinolytic, and kallikrein-kinin systems, and on platelets to cause an imbalance of the haemostatic system of the prey. In this review we describe their biochemical/biophysical characteristics, biological activities as well as aspects of their evolution and structure-activity relationship.
