An inventory of purified fibrin(ogen)olytic enzymes from snake venoms is presented. This inventory covers the literature through early 1997 and focuses only on those snake venom enzymes possessing clearly defined fibrinogenolytic and/or fibrinolytic activity. Hemorrhagic metalloproteinases, which in many cases exhibit fibrinogenolytic activity, will in general not be described. This inventory illustrates the broad diversity in the distribution of the snake venom fibrin-( ogen)olytic enzymes....
