Abstract
The proteolytic specificity of rhodostoxin, the major hemorrhagin from Calloselasma rhodostoma (Malayan pit viper) venom was investigated using oxidized B-chain of bovine insulin as substrate. Six peptide bonds were cleaved: Ser9-Hist10, His10-Leu11, Ala14-Leu15, Tyr16-Leu17, Gly20-Glu21 and Phe24-Phe25. Deglycosylated rhodostoxin, however, cleaved primarily at Arg22-Gly23.Entities:
