A Novel Phospholipase A2 Isolated from <i>Palythoa caribaeorum</i> Possesses Neurotoxic Activity

A Novel Phospholipase A2 Isolated from <i>Palythoa caribaeorum</i> Possesses Neurotoxic Activity

Zoanthids of the genus <i>Palythoa</i> are distributed worldwide in shallow waters around coral reefs. Like all cnidarians, they possess nematocysts that contain a large diversity of toxins that paralyze their prey. This work was aimed at isolating and functionally characterizing a cnida...
