Functional variability of snake venom metalloproteinases: adaptive advantages in targeting different prey and implications for human envenomation.
Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are major components in most viperid venoms that induce disturbances in the hemostatic system and tissues of animals envenomated by snakes. These disturbances are involved in human pathology of snake bites and appear to be essential for the capture and digestio...
