Application

Application Comment Organism
drug development because of the potential for use of the toxin in bioterrorism and the increasingly widespread application of the toxin in the medical field, there is interest in the development of small-molecule inhibitors of the metalloprotease Clostridium botulinum

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
complex between the botulinum neurotoxin A light chain and the inhibitory peptide N-Ac-CRATKML, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 1.4 A resolution, and in a second approach unliganded enzyme light chain with and without the Zn2+ cofactor bound, X-ray diffraction structure determination and anaylsis at 1.25 A and 1.20 A resolution, respectively, 6-8 mg/ml purified BoNT/ALC, residues 1-425, in 50 mM NaPO4, pH 6.0, and 2 mM EDTA, hanging drop vapor diffusion method, mixing of protein solution with reservoir solution containing 20% PEG 3,350, 0.2 M diammonium tartrate, pH 6.6, and equilibration against 0.5 ml reservoir solution, the crystals are soaked prior to cryo-cooling in the crystallization solution plus 10 mM Zn(NO3)2 for 4.5 h or 5 mM Zn(NO3)2 and 2 mM N-Ac-CRATKML for 23 h, respectively, modeling Clostridium botulinum

Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
proteolytic modification BoNTs are produced as a single 150 kDa polypeptide chain that is subsequently cleaved by endogenous proteases to give the dichain holotoxin Clostridium botulinum

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
Limited hydrolysis of proteins of the neuroexocytosis apparatus, synaptobrevin (also known as neuronal vesicle-associated membrane protein, VAMP), synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP25) or syntaxin. No detected action on small molecule substrates reaction mechanism Clostridium botulinum
