The Oxus cobra contains what kind of ions for their venom to be active?
Ribonuclease V1 Ribonuclease V1 (RNase V1) is a ribonuclease enzyme found in the venom of the Caspian cobra ("Naja oxiana"). It cleaves double-stranded RNA in a non-sequence-specific manner, usually requiring a substrate of at least six stacked nucleotides. Like many ribonucleases, the enzyme requires the presence of magnesium ions for activity.
Phrixotoxin Phrixotoxins are peptide toxins derived from the venom of the Chilean copper tarantula "Phrixotrichus auratus", also named "Paraphysa scrofa". Phrixotoxin-1 and -2 block A-type voltage-gated potassium channels; phrixotoxin-3 blocks voltage-gated sodium channels. Similar toxins are found in other species, for instance the Chilean rose tarantula.
