Snake venom phospholipase A2 (PLA2) that shows enzymatic, indirect hemolytic and anticoagulant activities. Interestingly, anti-PFIIc'serum completely inhibits anticoagulant activity, partially inhibits the indirect hemolytic activity, but does not inhibit enzymatic activity. PLA2 catalyzes the calcium-dependent hydrolysis of the 2-acyl groups in 3-sn-phosphoglycerides. a 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine + H2O = a 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine + a fatty acid + H(+) Binds 1 Ca(2+) ion. Expressed by the venom gland. Contains 7 disulfide bonds. LD(50) is 0.1 mg/kg by intraperitoneal injection. This phospholipase A2 is distinct from phospholipases of Russel's viper venom reported from other parts of India. Belongs to the phospholipase A2 family. Group II subfamily.
