[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PA2H1_BOTJR PA2H1_BOTJR] Snake venom phospholipase A2 homolog that lacks enzymatic activity. Shows local myotoxic activity (PubMed:11018293, PubMed:12079495, PubMed:31906173). Induces inflammation, since it induces edema and leukocytes infiltration (PubMed:11018293, PubMed:31906173). In addition, it induces NLRP3 NLRP3, ASC (PYCARD), caspase-1 (CASP1), and IL-1beta (IL1B) gene expression in the gastrocnemius muscle, showing that it is able to activate NLRP3 inflammasome (PubMed:31906173). It also damages artificial and myoblast membranes by a calcium-independent mechanism, has bactericidal activity, and induces neuromuscular blockade (PubMed:27531710). A model of myotoxic mechanism has been proposed: an apo Lys49-PLA2 is activated by the entrance of a hydrophobic molecule (e.g. fatty acid) at the hydrophobic channel of the protein leading to a reorientation of a monomer (PubMed:27531710) (By similarity). This reorientation causes a transition between 'inactive' to 'active' states, causing alignment of C-terminal and membrane-docking sites (MDoS) side-by-side and putting the membrane-disruption sites (MDiS) in the same plane, exposed to solvent and in a symmetric position for both monomers (PubMed:27531710) (By similarity). The MDoS region stabilizes the toxin on membrane by the interaction of charged residues with phospholipid head groups (PubMed:27531710) (By similarity). Subsequently, the MDiS region destabilizes the membrane with penetration of hydrophobic residues (PubMed:27531710) (By similarity). This insertion causes a disorganization of the membrane, allowing an uncontrolled influx of ions (i.e. calcium and sodium), and eventually triggering irreversible intracellular alterations and cell death (PubMed:27531710) (By similarity).[UniProtKB:I6L8L6]<ref>PMID:11018293</ref> <ref>PMID:11829743</ref> <ref>PMID:12079495</ref> <ref>PMID:17157889</ref> <ref>PMID:17346668</ref> <ref>PMID:18160090</ref> <ref>PMID:27531710</ref> <ref>PMID:3176051</ref> <ref>PMID:31906173</ref>

BACKGROUND: One of the main challenges in snakebite envenomation treatment is the development of stable, versatile and efficient anti-venom therapies. Local myotoxicity in accidents involving snakes from the Bothrops genus is still a consequence of serum therapy inefficient neutralization that may lead to permanent sequelae in their victims. One of the classes of toxins that participate in muscle necrosis is the PLA2-like proteins. The aim of this work was to investigate the role of zinc ions in the inhibition of PLA2-like proteins and to advance the current knowledge of their action mechanism. METHODS: Myographic and electrophysiological techniques were used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of zinc ions, isothermal titration calorimetry assays were used to measure the affinity between zinc ions and the toxin and X-ray crystallography was used to reveal details of this interaction. RESULTS: We demonstrated that zinc ions can effectively inhibit the toxin by the interaction with two different sites, which are related to two different mechanism of inhibition: preventing membrane disruption and impairing the toxin state transition. Furthermore, structural study presented here included an additional step in the current myotoxic mechanism improving the comprehension of the allosteric transition that PLA2-like proteins undergo to exert their function. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show that zinc ions are inhibitors of PLA2-like proteins and suggest two different mechanisms of inhibition for these ions. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE: Zinc is a new candidate that can assist in anti-venom treatments and can promote the design of new and even more accurate structure-based inhibitors for PLA2-like proteins.
