Abstract
A monoclonal antibody to the light chain of botulinum neurotoxin type B (BoNT/B) was generated and its protective activity was evaluated in vivo. A chimeric rabbit/human Fab library was generated using bone marrow and spleen cDNAs of rabbits immunized with the BoNT/B light chain, and three monoclonal antibodies specific to the catalytic domain of BoNT/B were isolated. One of these clones, BCXRH1, was specific to a conformation-dependent epitope, and partially neutralized the BoNT/B complex in vivo.Entities:
