Cellular and population strategies underpinning neurotoxin production and sporulation in Clostridium botulinum type E cultures
ABSTRACTToxin production and sporulation are key determinants of pathogenesis in Clostridia. Clostridium botulinum produces the most potent toxin known, the botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), which blocks neurotransmission and causes a life-threatening paralysis called botulism.
