additional information Clostridium botulinum BoNT/A binds to peripheral cholinergic nerve terminals, causing their inhibition, rapidly and with high specificity via its receptor binding, heavy chain domain termed HC. BoNT/A interacts specifically with polysialogangliosides and with a luminal loop of the synaptic vesicle protein SV2 via the C-terminal half of HC, while the N-terminal half of it binds to sphingomyelin-enriched membrane microdomains and shows defined interaction with phosphatidylinositol phosphates, that might play a role in the correct positioning of the toxin for the subsequent low pH-driven membrane insertion of translocation domain sHN.
