Joensuu and colleagues have recently shown that botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) type A exploits a heterotrimeric complex in the presynaptic membrane to bind to and enter neurons using a Trojan horse-like mechanism. Similar processes may be relevant to the neuronal entry of different botulinum toxin serotypes and other neuropathogens.

Abstract
Joensuu and colleagues have recently shown that botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) type A exploits a heterotrimeric complex in the presynaptic membrane to bind to and enter neurons using a Trojan horse-like mechanism. Similar processes may be relevant to the neuronal entry of different botulinum toxin serotypes and other neuropathogens.
