tailieunhanh - Báo cáo khoa hoc : Exchange of the HCC domain mediating double receptor recognition improves the pharmacodynamic properties of botulinum neurotoxin

The four-domain structure of botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) reflects their multistep intoxication process. The high toxicity of BoNTs primarily results from specific binding and uptake into neurons mediated by their 50-kDa cell-binding fragment (HC). X-ray crystallography data have revealed that the HCfragment consists of two domains of equal size, named the 25-kDa N-terminal half of HC(HCN) and the 25-kDa C-terminal half of HC(HCC). | IFEBS Journal Exchange of the HCC domain mediating double receptor recognition improves the pharmacodynamic properties of botulinum neurotoxin Andreas Rummel1 Stefan Mahrhold2 Hans Bigalke1 and Thomas Binz2 1 Institut fur Toxikologie Medizinische Hochschule Hannover Germany 2 Institut fur Biochemie Medizinische Hochschule Hannover Germany Keywords botulinum neurotoxin hybrid ganglioside-binding site HC fragment Hcc domain HCN domain Correspondence A.

The high toxicity of BoNTs primarily results from specific binding and uptake into neurons mediated by their 50-kDa cell-binding fragment HC . X-ray crystallography data have revealed that the HC fragment consists of two domains of equal size named the 25-kDa N-terminal half of HC HCN and the 25-kDa C-terminal half of HC HCC . In recent years the ganglioside-binding sites of all seven BoNT serotypes have been allocated to the HCC domain. For BoNT A BoNT B and BoNT G the protein receptor-binding site has been also been localized to the HCC domain. Here we demonstrate that the HCC serotype can modulate the affinity of the HC fragment for neuronal membranes as well as the potency of full-length BoNT by replacing the BoNT A HCC domain with the BoNT B HCC BoNT C HCC and BoNT E HCC domains which exhibit higher affinity for synaptosomes. Indeed the hybrids HCAB and HCAC display a higher affinity than wild-type HCA. Furthermore the potency of a BoNT A-based full-length hybrid containing the HCCB domain AAAB letters represent the serotype origin of the four domains was quadrupled as compared with wild-type BoNT A. .
