SMALL MOLECULE INHIBITORS OF BOTULINUM NEUROTOXINS

摘要

The invention provides potent quinolinol-based BoNT/A small-molecule inhibitors of botulinum neurotoxins, in particular of Clostridium botulinum serotype A neurotoxins. The invention also provides methods of using these small-molecule inhibitors to inhibit infections by Clostridium botulinum, as well as, methods of preventing infections by Clostridium botulinum through materials that may be ingested.
