The envenomation from the Bothrops genus is characterized by systemic and local effects caused by the main toxin families in the venom. In Bothrops pubescens venom we were able to identify 89 protein groups belonging to 13 toxin families with the bottom-up proteomics approach and 40 unique proteoforms belonging to 6 toxin families with the top-down proteomics approach. We also identified multi-proteoform complexes of dimeric L-amino acid oxidase using native top-down mass spectrometry.
该属的蛇毒中毒的特点是由毒液中的主要毒素家族引起的全身和局部作用。在 B. pubescens 毒液中,我们使用 bottom-up 蛋白质组学方法鉴定了属于 13 个毒素家族的 89 个蛋白质组,使用 top-down 蛋白质组学方法鉴定了属于 6 个毒素家族的 40 个独特的蛋白质组。我们还使用天然 top-down 质谱法鉴定了二聚 L-氨基酸氧化酶的多蛋白质组复合物。
