Function[PA22_NOTSC] Snake venom phospholipase A2 (PLA2) that inhibits neuromuscular transmission by blocking acetylcholine release from the nerve termini. Is directly toxic to skeletal muscle upon local application in vivo (dystrophic effect). PLA2 catalyzes the calcium-dependent hydrolysis of the 2-acyl groups in 3-sn-phosphoglycerides. See Also |
