- Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are a class of toxins produced by Clostridium botulinum (C. botulinum) and other species of Clostridia. BoNT/X is a putative novel botulinum neurotoxin identified through genome sequencing and capable of SNARE cleavage, but its neurotoxic potential in humans and vertebrates remained unclear. The C. botulinum strain producing BoNT/X, Strain 111, encodes both a plasmid-borne bont/b2 as well as the chromosomal putative bont/x. This study utilized C. botulinum Strain 111 from Japan as well as recombinantly produced full-length BoNT/X to more fully analyze this putative pathogenic toxin. We confirmed production of full-length, catalytically active native BoNT/X by C. botulinum Strain 111, produced as a disulfide-bonded dichain polypeptide similar to other BoNTs. Both the purified native and the recombinant BoNT/X had high enzymatic activity in vitro but displayed very low potency in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neuronal cells and in mice. Intraperitoneal injection of up to 50 µg of native BoNT/X in mice did not result in botulism; however, mild local paralysis was observed after injection of 2 μg into the gastrocnemius muscle. We further demonstrate that the lack of toxicity by BoNT/X is due to inefficient neuronal cell association and entry, which can be rescued by replacing the receptor binding domain of BoNT/X with that of BoNT/A. These data demonstrate that BoNT/X is not a potent vertebrate neurotoxin like the classical seven serotypes of BoNTs.
