		Cobras are venomous snakes of family Elapidae, of several genera.
		(Elapidae also include the taipans, brown snakes, tiger snakes, fierce snakes, coral snakes, mambas, and sea snakes.) Cobras generally inhabit tropical and desert regions of Asia and Africa.
		Elapidae cannot fold their fangs down, as Viperidae can, so the fangs are generally shorter.

		Cloning of cDNAs encoding C-type lectins from Elapidae snakes Bungarus fasciatus and Bungarus multicinctus.
		In contrast, only a few reports could be found in literature concerning the C-type lectins in Elapidae snake venoms.
		Based on the published cDNA sequences of C-type lectins from Viperidae snake venoms, oligonucleotide primers were designed and used to screen the cDNA libraries made from the venom glands of Bungarus fasciatus and Bungarus multicinctus.

		Of the roughly 2,100 species of snakes worldwide, only 200 species carry the potential for human suffering and death in their venom.
		In North America, 137 snake species are represented by seven families including the notorious Viperidae (vipers and pit vipers) and highly venomous Elapidae (coral snakes).
		While most of the rattlesnakes (genus Crotalus and Sistrurus) are elusive and nocturnal, generally avoiding human contact, other relatively harmless and beneficial snakes such as the bull snake or gopher snake (Pituophis catenifer) often find themselves facing the sharp end of a shovel.

		There is no antivenom available for the western coral snake, and care for victims of this snake is entirely supportive.
		There are other antivenoms produced in other countries, such as Costa Rica, Brazil, and India, for Elapidae species found there.
