TeNT differs from the ...The tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT) is a highly potent toxin produced by that inhibits neurotransmission of inhibitory interneurons, causing spastic paralysis in the tetanus disease. TeNT differs from the other clostridial neurotoxins by its unique ability to target the central nervous system by retrograde axonal transport. The crystal structure of the tetanus toxin reveals a "closed" domain arrangement stabilised by two disulphide bridges, and the molecular details of the toxin's interaction with its polysaccharide receptor. An integrative analysis combining X-ray crystallography, solution scattering and single particle electron cryo-microscopy reveals pH-mediated domain rearrangements that may give TeNT the ability to adapt to the multiple environments encountered during intoxication, and facilitate binding to distinct receptors. | |||||||||

Details | Fitting was performed manually using the X-ray crystal structure of the Tetanus neurotoxin (PDB 5n0b) by docking the two domains (catalytic and translocation domains) expected to be a 'rigid body' and then refined using the 'Fit in Map' logarithm of the Chimera software. A similar approach was used to fit in the binding domain. |
