Horse immunization with short-chain consensus α-neurotoxin generates antibodies against broad spectrum of elapid venomous species

Antivenoms, obtained by venom immunization, have narrow species coverage due to low immunogenicity of venom neurotoxins. Here the authors immunize horses with a designed recombinant consensus neurotoxin, and the resulting antisera protect mice from envenomation by a broad spectrum of elapid snakes.
