The habutobin cDNA was cloned from total RNA extracted from venom glands of Trimeresurus flavoviridis (the habu snake). The conceptual translation of 1539 bp of habutobin cDNA consists of 236 amino acids and its molecular weight is 25.7 kDa. Histidine (His)-tagged recombinant habutobin fusion protei

Haemodynamic effects of saline-extracted venom from nematocysts isolated from Chiropsalmus quadrigatus (Habu-kurage) were studied in anaesthetized rats. Intravenous administration of venom (0.2-5 microg protein/kg) produced immediately dose-dependent hypertension and bradycardia. Femoral blood flow

An investigation of the effects of ruthenium red, nitric oxide and endothelin-1 on infrared receptor activity in a crotaline snake.

, M M, C C, C C, .
Neuroscience. 2004 ;124(4)913-8.
The infrared (IR) receptors in the pit organ of crotaline snakes are very sensitive to temperature. The vasculature of the pit organs, which is located in close proximity to IR-sensitive terminal nerve masses (IR receptors), is finer, flatter, and more convoluted than that of other sensory organs.
