Comparison of the amino acid sequences of Crotoxin basic chain 1, CB1 [Crotalus durissus terrificus] phospholipase A2 enzymes (Phosphatidylcholine 2-acylhydrolase) with other PLA2s of Mojave toxin basic chain, Mtx-b [Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus], Crotoxin basic chain 2, CB2 [Crotalus durissus terrificus], Agkistrotoxin, ATX [Agkistrodon halys], VRV-PL-VIIIa [Daboia russelli pulchella], BOTAS (Myotoxin I) Bothrops asper (Terciopelo), ATXA, ammodytoxin A precursor [Vipera ammodytes ammodytes]; RVV-VD [Daboia russelli russelli]; RV-4 precursor [Daboia russelli siamensis], BOTAS (Myotoxin II) [Bothrops asper], BOTJR (BthTX-I) [Bothrops jararacussu], ECHCA (Ecarpholin S) [Echis carinatus (Saw-scaled viper)], Crotoxin acid chain precursor (CA) [Crotalus durissus terrificus], β-bungarotoxin A6 chain precursor [Bungarus multicinctus (Many-banded krait)] and OXYSC taipoxin alpha chain [Oxyuranus scutellatus scutellatus] and completely conserved residues in all sequences are bolded and marked by asterisks. The gaps are inserted in the sequences in order to attain maximum homology.
