CHARACTERIZATION OF AN ANTICOAGULANT AGENT IN THE VENOM OF IRANIAN COBRA (NAJA NAJA OXIANA).
Snake venoms contain a rich variety of factors which affect blood coagulation. There have been few reports on the anticoagulant activity of the venom of different cobras, but no such observations have been made on the Iranian cobra, although a procoagulant factor has been described. In this study an anticoagulant factor has been purified from the venom of Naja naja oxiana using gel filtrat...
متن کاملTargeting of venom phospholipases: the strongly anticoagulant phospholipase A(2) from Naja nigricollis venom binds to coagulation factor Xa to inhibit the prothrombinase complex.
The strongly anticoagulant basic phospholipase A(2) (CM-IV) from Naja nigricollis venom has previously been shown to inhibit the prothrombinase complex of the coagulation cascade by a novel nonenzymatic mechanism (S. Stefansson, R. M. Kini, and H. J. Evans Biochemistry 29, 7742-7746, 1990). That work indicated that CM-IV is a noncompetitive inhibitor and thus it interacts with either factor Va ...

متن کاملIdentification and isolation of immunodominant proteins of Naja naja (Oxiana) snake venom
Snake venom is a complex mixture of proteins, peptides, enzymes, carbohydrates, and minerals. They contain a variety of chemicals with pharmacological and toxicological properties. The innate immune system is the first line of defense against toxins and microbes. Antibacterial and anticancer proteins produced by snake venom have recently attracted significant attention due to their relevance to...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of an acidic phospholipase A2 (NN-XIb-PLA2) from the venom of Naja naja (Indian cobra)
The resistance of bacteria against the use of conventional antibiotics has become a serious threat to public health and considering the associated side effect with antibiotics; new strategies to find and develop new molecules with novel modes of action has received grate attention in recent years. In this study, when the antibacterial potential of an acidic protein-NN-XIb-PLA2 (Naja naja venom ...
