http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/2817904http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"The proteolytic activity of four hemorrhagic metalloproteinases (Ht-a, c, d, and e) isolated from the venom of the Western diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) was investigated using isolated extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. We determined that all of the proteinases are capable of cleaving fibronectin, laminin, type IV collagen, nidogen (entactin), and gelatins. However, none of the proteinases were proteolytic against the interstitial collagen types I and III or type V collagen. With all of the substrates listed above Ht-c and Ht-d produced identical digestion patterns, as would be expected for these isoenzymes. With fibronectin, Ht-a produces a different ratio of products from Ht-c and Ht-d, while Ht-e produces a unique pattern of digestion. Ht-e and Ht-a produced nonidentical patterns with the laminin/nidogen preparation although some similarity was shared between them as well as with the Ht-c/d digestion pattern. Similar results were also observed for these proteinases with nidogen 150 as the substrate. The type IV collagen digestion patterns by Ht-e and Ht-a were similar to the pattern observed with Ht-c/d but differed by two bands. The digestion patterns of the three gelatins produced by the proteinases show differences between Ht-c and Ht-d when compared to Ht-e and Ht-a. This investigation clearly shows that several of the ECM proteins are efficiently digested by these toxins. The proteinases have some digestion sites in common but show differing specificities. In addition, the range of ECM proteins digested by these hemorrhagic proteinases is nearly identical to that demonstrated by the ECM proteinase stromelysin (MMP-3). From these data, and the knowledge of the roles these ECM proteins have in maintaining basement membrane structural/functional integrity, one can envision that the degradation of these ECM proteins could readily lead to loss of capillary integrity resulting in hemorrhage occurring at those sites."xsd:string
