Characterization of plasma secretory phospholipase A2 activity in the prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis)
Abstract Background Plasma phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzyme activity is a key component of innate immunity in most vertebrates. We evaluated circulating secreted PLA2 activity of prairie rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis) by incubation of plasma with bacteria labeled with fluorescent membrane lipids. Res...
