RT from Crotalus atrox venom.";

CC -!- FUNCTION: Snake venom zinc metalloproteinase that cleaves both
CC alpha- and beta-chains of fibrinogen, but not the gamma-chain
CC (PubMed:29761254). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29761254}.
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000305|PubMed:29761254};
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Inhibited by carbon monoxide (CO)
CC (PubMed:29761254). This inhibition is explained by the presence of heme
CC attached to the enzyme and modulated by CO (PubMed:29761254). The state
CC change of heme induced by CO (carboxyheme or metheme) may inhibit the
CC enzyme (PubMed:29761254). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29761254}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29761254}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:29761254}.
CC -!- PTM: Contains 3 disulfide bonds. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P34182}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This is the first SVMP that is heme-bound and carbon
CC monoxide-inhibited. The heme-binding may serve to regulate SVMP
CC activity during envenomation, with both protective and aggressive
CC purposes. First, if the venom gland is elaborating CO via the enzymatic
CC action of heme oxygenase, then inhibition of SVMP by CO is likely
CC important in preventing this enzyme from disrupting the epithelial
CC barrier of the gland and injuring the snake. Second, given that the
CC body temperature of snakes tend to be between 20 and 30 degrees
CC Celsius, the rate of elaboration of CO would not need to be that great
CC to inhibit the enzymes, as the affinity of CO for heme is at its
CC highest in this range. Third, when a prey animal is envenomed, CO would
CC be expected to diffuse from SVMP and bind to the myriad of hemes found
CC in mitochondrial cytochromes and hemoglobin in red cells perfusing the
CC bite site. Fourth, in the case of mammalian prey such as rodents with
CC body temperatures of 36-37 degrees Celsius, it again would be expected
CC that CO would bind less well to heme-bound SVMP and quickly be
CC released. Such rapid removal of CO from SVMP would be analogous to
CC 'unsheathing a sword' allowing enzymatic action to start and ultimately
CC incapacitating the envenomed prey. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:29761254}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the venom metalloproteinase (M12B) family. P-II
CC subfamily. P-IIa sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
