VF Bacteria Brief description
Anthrax toxin
Bacillus
(B. anthracis str. Sterne)
atxA, a pXO1 gene required for transcription of the three toxin genes, also positively regulated encapsulation. The expression of atxA gene is not controlled by CO2. ...
BoNT
(Botulinum neurotoxin)
Clostridium
(C. botulinum B1 str. Okra)
BoNTs are the most toxic proteins known. Encoded on the chromosome, plasmids and bacteriophage. Seven immunologically distinct forms of BoNT exist, designated as serotypes A to G. The subtypes can differ up to 36% on the amino acid level within a given serotype. So far, more than 40 subtypes have been described in the literature. BoNT/A, B, E, F induce botulism in humans, BoNT/C and D and their mosaic variants CD and DC induce botulism in animals, BoNT/G has not been clearly assigned to a natural outbreak in humans or animals. Additionally, several novel BoNT molecules have been pronounced: BoNT/HA (also called BoNT/FA or BoNT/H) which was involved in an infant botulism case and has been characterised as a novel mosaic type toxin and BoNT/X, both produced or encoded by C. botulinum, as well as eBoNT/J (aka BoNT/En) encoded by Enterococcus faecium. BoNTs associate with non-toxic clostridial proteins to form large, stable complexes that exist in cultures known as progenitor toxins. These progenitor toxins comprise three different forms: 12S (C 300 kDa), 16S (C 500 kDa), and 19S (C 900 kDa), and consist of neurotoxin subunits coupled with one or more non-toxic components known as neurotoxin associated proteins (NAPs). NAPs possess hemagglutinin activity (HA) protect the neurotoxin from harsh environment inside host like low pH and proteases, and include HA-17, HA-22, HA-33, and HA-55. ...
