Biology:Jararhagin
From HandWiki
Jararhagin (EC 3.4.24.73, HF2-proteinase, JF1) is an enzyme.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- Hydrolysis of -His10-Leu-, -Ala14-Leu-, -Tyr16-Leu-and -Phe24-Phe- bonds in insulin B chain
This endopeptidase is present in the venom of the jararaca snake (Bothrops jararaca).
