Issue Date: | 1994 | Citation: | Chung, M.C.M., Tan, N.-H., Armugam, A. (1994). The amino acid sequences of two postsynaptic neurotoxins isolated from malayan cobra (Naja naja sputatrix) venom.

ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/0041-0101(94)90418-9 | Abstract: | The complete amino acid sequences of two postsynaptic neurotoxins (toxin-3 and toxin-5) isolated from Malayan cobra (Naja naja sputatrix) venom were determined by direct automated Edman degradation of peptides obtained from digests with various proteases. Toxin-3 and toxin-5 are both short-chain neurotoxins and their amino acid sequences are highly homologous to Naja naja atra and Naja naja philippinensis neurotoxin, respectively. Toxin-3 is unique in possessing aspartic acid (D) as the fifth residue, while all other homologous short-chain neurotoxins have asparagine (N) at the corresponding position. | Source Title: | Toxicon | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/107760 | ISSN: | 00410101 | DOI: | 10.1016/0041-0101(94)90418-9 |
