Glycans Confer Specificity to the Recognition of Ganglioside Receptors by Botulinum Neurotoxin A.
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2017 The highly poisonous botulinum neurotoxins, produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, act on their hosts by a high-affinity association to two receptors on neuronal cell surfaces as the first step of invasion.

Cholinergic innervation is necessary to shift reward timing activity in rodent visual cortex [PDF]
, 2011 While the biological analogue of prediction error has been well characterized in the midbrain dopaminergic system, the possibility of other neuromodulatory systems acting as global reinforcers is a topic of much debate.

Engineered botulinum neurotoxin B with improved efficacy for targeting human receptors
Nature Communications, 2017 Botulinum neurotoxin B is a Food and Drug Administration-approved therapeutic toxin. However, it has lower binding affinity toward the human version of its major receptor, synaptotagmin II (h-Syt II), compared to mouse Syt II, because of a residue ...
