One-Step Affinity Purification of Leucine-Rich α₂-Glycoproteins from Snake Sera and Characterization of Their Phospholipase A₂-Inhibitory Activities as β-Type Phospholipase A₂ Inhibitors

Snakes contain three types of phospholipase A₂ (PLA₂)-inhibitory proteins in their blood, PLIα, β, and γ, which protect them from their own venom, PLA₂. PLIβ is the snake ortholog of leucine-rich α₂ glycoprot...
