The identification and biochemical characterization of drug-like compounds that inhibit botulinum neurotoxin serotype A endopeptidase activity

A robust, high-throughput, two-tiered assay for screening small molecule inhibitors against botulinum neurotoxin serotype A was developed and employed to screen 16,544 compounds. Thirty-four compounds were identified as potent hits employing the first-tier assay. Subsequently, nine were confirmed as...
