Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT) are zinc metalloproteases that cleave and inactivate cellular proteins essential for neurotransmitter release. Because the paralytic effect of BoNT is a consequence of its enzymatic activity, selective inhibitors may be useful as drugs or as tools for further research. T

This paper describes the development of galactosidase protease-activated receptor (GPAR) as a recombinant protein obtained by fusion of โค-galactosidase, the extracellular domains of protease-activated receptors (PARs), and a biotin acceptor domain. Used as an immobilized substrate, this protein allo
