Hsp90 is involved in the entry of clostridial neurotoxins into the cytosol of nerve terminals

Abstract: Botulinum and tetanus neurotoxins are the most toxic substances known and form the growing family of clostridial neurotoxins. They are composed of a metalloprotease light chain (L), linked via a disulfide bond to a heavy chain (H). H mediates the binding to nerve terminals and the membrane translocation of L into the cytosol where their substrates, the three SNARE proteins, are localised. L translocation is accompanied by unfolding, and it has to be reduced and reacquire the native fold to exert its neurotoxic… Show more

“…In both models, the reduction of the disulphide bond is essential to free the LC at the end of the translocation step, and the enzyme thioredoxin and its regenerating enzyme thioredoxin reductase have been identified as the cellular system responsible for the reduction of the disulphide bridge [61]. Following translocation, another key protein recently identified is Hsp 90, which may act as a chaperone assisting the refolding of the LC once in the cytosol [62].…”

“…Hsp90 is also active in the endosome‐to‐cytosol translocation of AB‐type ADP‐ribosylating toxins (ADPRTs), but it is not required for the endosomal translocation of most AB toxins with different catalytic activities (Azarnia Tehran et al, ; Dmochewitz et al, ; Haug, Aktories, & Barth, ; Haug et al, ; Kaiser et al, ; Lang et al, ; Ratts et al, ; Schuster et al, ; Steinemann, Schlosser, Jank, & Aktories, ). Likewise, Hsp90 is not needed to complete the intoxication process for three ER‐translocating toxins that are not ADPRTs: Shiga toxin 1 (Stx1), Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2), and ricin (Spooner et al, ; Taylor, Britt, Fundora, & Teter, ).…”

“…The heavy chain of BoNT mediates the binding to nerve terminals and the membrane translocation of the light chains into the cytosol, where the substrates of BoNT, namely the three SNARE proteins (VAMP, SNAP25, and syntaxin), are localised. Recently, it was described that the heat shock protein Hsp90 is involved in the entry of clostridial neurotoxins into the cytosol of nerve terminals [ 5 , 6 , 7 ]. The subsequent effect of BoNT is mediated by the inhibition of acetylcholine release from the motor nerve terminal into the neuromuscular junction [ 8 ].…”
