Myotoxic phospholipases A from snake venom, Pseudechis colletti, producing myoglobinuria in mice.
2 proteins producing myoglobinuria in mice were isolated from the venom of the Australian elapid snake Pseudechis colletti and identified as phospholipases A showing close similarities in amino acid composition to a similarly acting enzyme from a sea snake venom (Enhydrina schistosa).
