Structural highlights
1kuk is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Protobothrops mucrosquamatus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
VM2T3_PROMU Snake venom metalloproteinase TM-3: fibrin(ogen)olytic protease which cleaves the Aalpha chain of fibrinogen (FGA) first followed by the Bbeta chain (FGB) and shows relatively low activity on the gamma chain (FGG).[1][2] Disintegrin trimucrin: inhibits platelet aggregation induced by ADP, thrombin, platelet-activating factor and collagen. Acts by inhibiting fibrinogen interaction with platelet receptors GPIIb/GPIIIa (ITGA2B/ITGB3).[3][4]
