THE HC FRAGMENT OF TETANUS TOXIN COMPLEXED WITH N-ACETYL-GALACTOSAMINE

Overview

The entry of tetanus neurotoxin into neuronal cells proceeds through the, initial binding of the toxin to gangliosides on the cell surface. The, carboxyl-terminal fragment of the heavy chain of tetanus neurotoxin, contains the ganglioside-binding site, which has not yet been fully, characterized. The crystal structures of native H(C) and of H(C) soaked, with carbohydrates reveal a number of binding sites and provide insight, into the possible mode of ganglioside binding.

About this Structure

1D0H is a Single protein structure of sequence from Clostridium tetani with A2G and SO4 as ligands. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
