Amino acid sequences of myotoxins from Crotalus viridis concolor venom.
Myotoxins I and II were isolated from the venom of Crotalus viridis concolor. Complete sequences were derived for each reduced, alkylated toxin with data obtained by a single run on a gas phase sequencer and from fragments derived by cyanogen bromide cleavage. The results demonstrate that microheterogeneity is present in myotoxin II. The newly established sequences were compared with 3447 protein sequences in the Protein Information Resource database. The only homologous proteins found were other known myotoxins from rattlesnake venoms, namely myotoxin a, crotamine and peptide C.
