SCUTELARIN

Scutelarin ( EC 3.4.21.60, taipan activator, Oxyuranus scutellatus prothrombin-activating proteinase) is an enzyme.^[1]^[2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Selective cleavage of Arg-Thr and Arg-Ile in prothrombin to form thrombin and two inactive fragments

This enzyme is isolated from the venom of the Taipan snake ( Oxyuranus scutellatus).
