Receptor Binding and Membrane Transport of Botulinum Toxins
Abstract
This study centers upon the development of a model membrane system for the study of the membrane-active protein toxin, botulinum. The model membrane system requires 1) That the membrane retains impermeability to ions and small molecules during an acid shock, 2) That large numbers of botulinum toxin may be recovered from the membrane after any membranolytic activity has been produced from the toxin by acid shock.
