ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to snake venom protease polypeptides and nucleic acid sequences encoding same. This invention also relates to methods of making and using the snake venom proteases, e.g., to promote haemostasis and prevent blood loss such as during surgery or for treatment of wounds resulting from accidents and other types of injury or trauma.
