Tetanus toxin is a 150 kD protein produced by the gram positive bacteria Clostridium tetani under anaerobic condition. Tetanus toxin is a hetrodimer of A-chain (50 kD) and B-chain (100 kD) linked by one disulfide bond. The A-chain has a zinc endopeptidase activity while the B-chain has a role in toxin anchoring to neuronal membranes.
