Nature of intracellular type A botulinum neurotoxin [PDF]
The neurotoxin in cells of young Clostridium botulinum type A culture was extracted with lysozyme. Highly purified neurotoxin preparation, obtained by processing the extract in two chromatographic steps had only unnicked (single-chain) molecules of molecular weight comparable to that of the dichains isolated from type A crystals.
