The synaptic vesicle protein 2C mediates the uptake of botulinum neurotoxin A into phrenic nerves

Mahrhold, Stefan, Rummel, Andreas, Bigalke, Hans, Davletov, Bazbek, Binz, Thomas·2006·FEBS Letters

Abstract

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) inhibit neurotransmitter release by selectively cleaving core components of the vesicular fusion machinery. The synaptic vesicle proteins Synaptotagmin‐I and ‐II act as receptors for BoNT/B and BoNT/G. Here we show that BoNT/A also interacts with a synaptic vesicle protein, the synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2C (SV2C), but not with the homologous proteins SV2A and SV2B. Binding of BoNT/A occurs at the membrane juxtaposed region preceding transmembrane domain 8. A peptide comprising the intravesicular domain between transmembrane domains 7 and 8 specifically reduces the neurotoxicity of BoNT/A at phrenic nerve preparations demonstrating the physiological relevance of this interaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
