Snake venom phospholipase A2 homolog that lacks enzymatic activity. Shows high myotoxin activities and displays edema-inducing activities (PubMed:18586854).

Caution

Has been reported as being enzymatically active and calcium-dependently inducing platelet aggregation (PubMed:8921006). This activity appears to be unlikely in light of the lack of activity of both recombinant AtnL (S49) and bothropstoxin-1 (K49), especially keeping in mind the possibility of contamination of the purified protein with catalytically active sPLA2s. The fact that the high level of enzymatic activity reported was determined on PC substrates and that it was in the range of the human group IIA enzyme, which in fact displays a very low activity on PC-rich substrates, casts further doubt on the reported activity of ecarpholin S (PubMed:17927217).2 Publications
Does not bind calcium as one of the calcium-binding sites is lost (Asp->Ser in position 48, which corresponds to 'Ser-49' in the current nomenclature).Curated

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1. The algorithm is described in the ISO 3309 standard. </p> <p class="publication">Press W.H., Flannery B.P., Teukolsky S.A. and Vetterling W.T.<br /> <strong>Cyclic redundancy and other checksums</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.nrbook.com/b/bookcpdf.php">Numerical recipes in C 2nd ed., pp896-902, Cambridge University Press (1993)</a>)</p> Checksum:i92FA098F1BF3DA45
