Is s-Viper Cysteine-Rich Venom Protein vegetarian?

s-Viper Cysteine-Rich Venom Protein is a synthetically produced single-chain protein made to be identical to a cysteine-rich venom protein naturally found in the venom of the Russell's viper, Daboia russelii. Although modeled on an animal venom protein, it is manufactured synthetically rather than derived from the animal.

An ingredient is considered vegetarian if it avoids components derived from killing an animal.
