Recombinant Aplysia rho and a GTP-binding protein purified from human neutrophil membranes (G22K) were ADP-ribosylated by botulinum toxin C3 with stoichiometries of 0.8 and 0.6, respectively. Rho and G22K appeared to be different proteins since (i) rho migrated faster on polyacrylamide gels, (ii) unlike G22K, rho did not require the presence of cytosol to be ADP-ribosylated, (iii) G22K was not recognized by an anti-rho antiserum, and (iv) antibody 142-24E05 recognized G22K effectively but only poorly cross reacted with rho. ADP-ribosylation had no effect on the ability of rho to bind or hydrolyse GTP. Therefore, it appears that there are multiple botulinum toxin C3 substrates and that the toxin exerts its effects on cell function by a mechanism other than modulating the GTPase activity of rho.

D001905 Botulinum Toxins Toxic proteins produced from the species CLOSTRIDIUM BOTULINUM. The toxins are synthesized as a single peptide chain which is processed into a mature protein consisting of a heavy chain and light chain joined via a disulfide bond. The botulinum toxin light chain is a zinc-dependent protease which is released from the heavy chain upon ENDOCYTOSIS into PRESYNAPTIC NERVE ENDINGS. Once inside the cell the botulinum toxin light chain cleaves specific SNARE proteins which are essential for secretion of ACETYLCHOLINE by SYNAPTIC VESICLES. This inhibition of acetylcholine release results in muscular PARALYSIS.
