The characteristic CXC chemokine disulfide core of interleukin-8 (IL-8) has been rearranged in a variant replacing the 9-50 disulfide with a 9-38 disulfide. The new variant has been characterized by its binding affinity to IL-8 receptors A and B and the erythrocyte receptor DARC. This variant binds
Phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2 ) enzymes from snake venoms are approximately 14 kDa secretory proteins and catalyze the release of arachidonic acid which is the precursor of proinflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes and plateletactivating factors. The structure of the PL
## Abstract A novel ligand‐binding site with functional implications has been identified in phospholipase A~2~ (PLA~2~). The binding of non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory agent indomethacin at this site blocks both catalytic and anti‐coagulant actions of PLA~2~. A group IIA PLA~2~ has been isolated fr
