Background: GFP/SNAP25B/VAMP-2

Botulinum and tetanus neurotoxins (BoNTs and TeNT) are zinc metalloproteases that hydrolyze and inactivate proteins necessary for neurotransmission. The protease domain is located in the light chain of the neurotoxin. Among the known substrates of BoNTs and TeNT are synaptosomal protein-25 (SNAP25) and vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP). This substrate incorporates a green fluorescent protein (GFPuv) and portions of human SNAP25B and VAMP‑2 that contain the cleavage sites of all the known BoNTs and TeNT. The light chains of BoNTs -A, -C, and -E cleave the SNAP25B sequence, while BoNTs -B, -D, -F, -G, and TeNT cleave within the VAMP‑2 sequence.  The substrate can be used in a SDS‑PAGE gel-shift assay to detect cleavage by the neurotoxin proteases. Alternatively, the substrate can be coupled to maleimide-activated microwell plates through the C-terminal cysteine residue to generate a high throughput assay format. A similar substrate and assay format has been used to screen for inhibitors of these neurotoxin proteases (1).
