Abstract: The present invention provides engineered clostridial toxins comprising at least one amino acid modification, wherein said at least one amino acid modification increases the isoelectric point (pi) of the engineered clostridial toxin to a value that is at least 0.2 pi units higher than the pi of an otherwise identical clostridial toxin lacking said at least one amino acid modification, and wherein said at least one amino acid modification is not located in the clostridial toxin binding domain (Hc domain). Also provided are medical uses of the engineered clostridial toxins.

Abstract: A method for purifying a clostridial neurotoxin comprising contacting a cation exchange resin with a composition comprising a clostridial neurotoxin, wherein the contacting step is performed at at least pH 7.3, wherein the step of contacting a cation exchange resin with a composition comprising said clostridial neurotoxin occurs prior to conversion of the clostridial neurotoxin from a single chain form into a dichain form. Also provided are uses of a buffer having a pH value that is ?1 pH unit or higher than the calculated pi of a clostridial neurotoxin, purification intermediates and clostridial neurotoxins obtainable by the invention, wherein the clostridial neurotoxin is in a single chain form.
