Function
[PA2B1_BOTJR] Snake venom phospholipase A2 homolog that lacks enzymatic activity. In vivo, induces muscle necrosis, accompanied by polymorphonuclear cell infiltration, and edema in the mouse paw. Damages artificial and myoblast membranes by a calcium-independent mechanism. Has bactericidal activity.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
