what? fragte in Science & MathematicsBiology · vor 1 Jahrzehnt

in dire need of help. anyone know about botulinum toxin?

answers to any of these would be nice.

1) do you know its natural location? since it's produced by C botulinum im guessing it comes from soil and canned foods that werent properly sealed. and it affects humans if they ingest it. im not sure if i am right or not.

2) what is its function (what metabolic process is it involved in overall, what specific job does it do, what is the mechanism of its function)? i think it has to do with the toxin blocking off the receptors of the nerve to the muscle. but its just my guess im not sure.

3) the proteins structure, including secondary structire and overall 3D shape, the location of ligand binding sites for function and regulation. this i really dont know.

please help me. thanks.

    It prevents the release of acetylcholine . If I remember its the actin filaments that are the binding sites

    Hope this helps
