Clostridium botulinum toxin fragment C013 / 7173
Clostridium botulinum toxin fragment, molecular model showing secondary structure. This binding domain fragment (BBHc), a hydrolase, is from botulinum neurotoxin type B, one of the toxins that causes the deadly paralytic illness botulism. Produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, it is usually ingested in the form of contaminated food. This fragment has two chains and 438 amino acids

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the molecular model of Clostridium botulinum toxin fragment C013/7173, a hydrolase from botulinum neurotoxin type B. This deadly toxin is responsible for causing the paralytic illness known as botulism. Produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, it is commonly ingested through contaminated food. The intricate illustration highlights the secondary structure of this binding domain fragment (BBHc), consisting of two chains and 438 amino acids. Its toxic nature makes it a significant concern in terms of public health and safety. Displayed against a backdrop of vibrant colors, this artwork not only captures the structural complexity but also emphasizes its poisonous properties. The graphic representation serves as an invaluable tool for understanding the biological mechanisms behind this dangerous bacteria and its impact on human health. With its focus on microbiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology, this image holds immense value for researchers studying biomolecules and proteomics. It offers insights into how these macromolecules function at a molecular level while shedding light on potential therapeutic interventions to combat botulism. Created by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this visually striking print combines science with artistry to provide an engaging glimpse into one of nature's most potent toxins.
