摘要: Snake venom is not composed of single compounds but a complex mixture proteins. It known exactly how many proteins are present in venom, it probably consists fifty to sixty components. Each protein possesses its own biological activity. A further complication that composition and activity snake vary among the species. In general, closer phylogenetic relationship snakes, more similar properties composition.
