Tetanus toxin C-fragment molecule F006 / 9223
Tetanus toxin C-fragment. Molecular model of a fragment of the neurotoxin protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani that causes tetanus. This fragment is responsible for binding to lipids on the membranes of nerve cells (gangliosides). Once bound, other fragments of the protein use enzymatic properties to enter the cell

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of the Tetanus toxin C-fragment molecule F006 / 9223. Produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani, this neurotoxin protein is responsible for causing the debilitating condition known as tetanus. The fragment depicted in this image plays a crucial role in binding to lipids found on nerve cell membranes, specifically gangliosides. The white background beautifully contrasts with the detailed illustration, making it an eye-catching piece for any biology or medical research setting. With its emphasis on chemical and bacteriological aspects, this artwork represents a significant contribution to our understanding of molecular and biochemical processes. The carefully crafted model highlights various structural elements such as alpha helices and beta sheets that form the tertiary structure of this toxic protein. Its complex arrangement allows other fragments of the protein to utilize enzymatic properties, enabling them to enter cells effectively. By providing cutouts and illustrations like these, LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY supports proteomics research and aids healthcare professionals in their quest for knowledge about diseases like tetanus caused by neurotropic exotoxins such as tetanospasmin. This stunning visual representation serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity inherent in biological systems while inspiring further exploration into biochemistry and microbiology realms.
