Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins are the most potent toxins known. They cause botulism, a deadly disease in humans and animals, and are both public health hazard and potential biowarfare agent. Botulinum neurotoxin consists of multiple domains, each domain being responsible for a specific function in its toxicity. This review describes their molecular structures and discusses the structure-function relation of each domain
