Abstract excerpt
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), including serotypes A and E, are potent biotoxins known to cause human poisoning. In addition to the critical protective antigen found in the full BoNT molecule, the receptor binding domain (Hc domain), BoNTs also harbour another essential protective antigen-the light chain-translocation domain (L-HN domain). Leveraging these pivotal protective antigens, we genetically engineered a...
