Botulinum toxin, botulinum neurotoxin, anaa botox be a neurotoxic protein wey de bacterium Clostridium botulinum den related species produce, wey e be considered de deadliest known natural substance ever recorded insyd chemical literature.[1][2][3][4] E dey prevent de release of de neurotransmitter acetylcholine from axon endings at de neuromuscular junction, thus dey cause flaccid paralysis.[5] De toxin dey cause de disease botulism.[6] Botulinum toxin be an acetylcholine release inhibitor den a neuromuscular blocking agent.[7][8] Botulinum toxin be developed as a biological agent by de Soviet, United States, den Iraqi biological weapons programs. Insyd strongly diluted form, de toxin sanso be used for medical den cosmetic purposes.[9][10]

De seven main types of botulinum toxin dem name be types A to G (A, B, C1, C2, D, E, F and G).[9][11] New types occasionally be found.[12][13][14] Types A den B be capable of causing disease insyd humans, wey sanso be used commercially den medically.[15][16][17] Types C–G be less common.

Insyd 2025, de structure of de complete 14 subunit botulinum neurotoxin complex (L-PTC) be solved.[18]

Structure of the complete 14-subunit botulinum neurotoxin B complex (L-PTC)
De toxin complex (L-PTC) plus ein 14 components. De toxin einself be colored pink den dey sit at de top of de complex. De structure dey consist of tens of thousands of atoms, den hie only de surface of de complex be shown.[18]

Intoxication fi occur naturally as a result of either wound anaa intestinal infection anaa by ingesting formed toxin insyd chow. De estimated human median lethal dose of type A toxin be 1.3–2.1 ng/kg intravenously anaa intramuscularly, 10–13 ng/kg wen dem inhale, anaa 1 μg/kg wen dem take by mouth.[19]
