A Promising Biomolecule Able to Degrade Neutrophil Extracellular Traps: <i>Cdc</i>PDE, a Rattlesnake Phosphodiesterase

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are an important mechanism for defense against pathogens. Their overproduction can be harmful since excessive NET formation promotes inflammation and tissue damage in several diseases. Nucleases are capable to degrade NET on basis of their DNA hydrolysis activit...
