Discovery of the Gene Encoding a Novel Small Serum Protein (SSP) of <i>Protobothrops flavoviridis</i> and the Evolution of SSPs

Small serum proteins (SSPs) are low-molecular-weight proteins in snake serum with affinities for various venom proteins. Five SSPs, <i>Pf</i>SSP-1 through <i>Pf</i>SSP-5, have been reported in <i>Protobothrops flavoviridis</i> (&#8220;habu&#8221;, <i>...
