Abstract
Proteases are major components of viperid snake venom proteomes. Among these, Snake Venom Metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are especially abundant components and are responsible for various pathological effects following envenomation. The SVMPs contain regulatory domains in additional to the catalytic domain which are involved in their mechanisms of interaction with the extracellular matrix pro…
Recombinant expression, and functional characterization of the non-catalytic domains of a P-III class metalloproteinase from Bothrops jararaca snake venom, using a cell-free expression system, BP.IC
Abstract
Cells release different forms of extracellular vesicles, including structures called microvesicles (MVs) that are capable of altering the extracellular microenvironment. Despite the growing number of studies on MVs, their biogenesis, biological function, and the mechanisms that regulate the delivery of their contents are still poorly known. MVs are generated from various cell types such a…
Pro-inflammatory activity of snake venom proteinases: i)expression of recombinant proteinases in a cell-free system; ii) generation of microvesicles by monocytes stimulated with native and recomb proteinases, and analysis of their interaction with end cells, BP.PD

Abstract
Snake venom proteinases participate in snakebite pathology such as hemorrhage, inflammation, necrosis and hemostasis imbalance. Metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are synthesized as latent multi-domain precursors whose processing generates either catalytically active enzymes or free non-enzymatic domains. Serine proteinases (SVSPs) are synthesized as precursors containing a pro-peptide. Recombina…
