Among bacterial protein toxins with intracellular targets, tetanus and botulinum toxins form a group with unique properties. They are absolutely neurospecific and act in the cytosol of neurons. Recent evidence indicates that they are zinc proteases specific for proteins of the neuroexocytosis apparatus.

Abstract
Among bacterial protein toxins with intracellular targets, tetanus and botulinum toxins form a group with unique properties. They are absolutely neurospecific and act in the cytosol of neurons. Recent evidence indicates that they are zinc proteases specific for proteins of the neuroexocytosis apparatus.File in questo prodotto:
