The botulinum toxin type F disulfide-bonded heavy chain - light chain heterodimer ("dichain") (botF HC:LC, encoded by the C. botulinum botF gene) binds ganglioside GT1b and synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A), B (SV2B), or C (SV2C) on the plasma membrane of a human target cell. In vivo, this process specifically targets synapses at neuromuscular junctions, where toxin association with ganglioside may position it to bind efficiently to SV2A, B, or C when those proteins are exposed at the cell surface by exocytosis (Fu et al. 2009; Rummel et al. 2009).
