Background: Botulinum toxin is a toxin produced by the anaerobic, gram-positive, bacterium of the genus Clostridium (C. botulinum, C. butyricum, C. baratii and C. argentinense) . These strains are widely distributed and can be found in soil and dust. Eight types of botulinum toxin are distinguished, named type A-H. Type A and B are capable of causing disease in humans (botulism) and have longest activity in vivo, and are also used commercially (BOTOX) and medically. Types C-G are less common; types E and F can cause disease in humans, while the other types cause disease in other animals. BotA is cleaved into two chains: heavy and light.Alternative name: Bontoxilysin-A
