Characterization of a cytotoxin-like basic protein from the cobra (Naja naja naja) venom.
A cytotoxin-like basic protein has been isolated from the venom of the nominate race of cobra (Naja naja naja from Pakistan) by a single step of high-performance liquid chromatography. The primary structure was determined and consists of 62 amino acid residues in a single polypeptide chain. It is highly similar to that of the cytotoxin-like basic proteins isolated from other Naja species, but differs in two of the SS-loop structures from that of cytotoxins.
