title: Primary structure of Ac1-proteinase from the venom of Deinagkistrodon acutus (hundred-pace snake) from Taiwan.
abstract: The entire amino acid sequence of Ac1-Proteinase from Deinagkistrodon acutus venom was determined by using lysyl endopeptidase, metalloendopeptidase, trypsin and V8 protease. The hemorrhagic toxin had a typical zinc-chelating sequence His-Glu-X-X-His found in thermolysin.
