COMMENT     A 24 kDa hemorrhagic endopeptidase from the venom of the western
            diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) that digests type IV
            collagen, and exists as two forms, c and d.  Phosphoramidon
            inhibits in the 0.1 mM range.  The complete amino acid sequence of
            form d is known.  Hemorrhagic toxin-2 of C. ruber ruber has the
            same Mr and specificity and is a homologue.
