Background of Botulinum neurotoxin type E antibody
Clostridium botulinum E Toxoid acts by inhibiting neurotransmitter release. It binds to peripheral neuronal synapses, is internalized and moves by retrograde transport up the axon into the spinal cord where it can move between postsynaptic and presynaptic neurons. It inhibits neurotransmitter release by acting as a zinc endopeptidase. It has a non-toxic component which is necessary to maintain toxicity.
