Inhibitor Molecules Could Become Drugs to Block Deadly Poison

Botulism toxins are among the deadliest known poisons. Minute quantities in improperly canned goods can cause a fatal form of food poisoning. Recently, some forms have been used in medical settings to smooth facial wrinkles and to quell bladder spasms to stem urinary leakage. But fear of their use as a bioterror weapon has made the toxins notorious — and the push for developing antitoxin drugs or vaccines a high priority.
