title: [Amino acid sequence of 2 neurotoxins from the scorpion Buthus eupeus venom].
abstract: Three polypeptides, M10, M14 and M9, toxic to mammals were isolated from the venom of the Central Asian scorpion Buthus eupeus. All the toxins were shown to be homogeneous according to disc-electrophoresis and N-terminal group analyses. The toxin M9 was digested with trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus proteinase and cleaved with BNPS-skatole. The toxin M14 was subjected to tryptic and chymotryptic hydrolyses. The complete amino acid sequences of the toxins M9 and M14 were established and it was shown that each of them consists of 66 amino acid residues with four intramolecular disulfide bonds.
