Abstract excerpt

Bacillus thuringiensis Cry protein exerts its toxic effect through a receptor-mediated process. Both aminopeptidases and cadherin proteins were identified as putative Cry1A receptors from Heliothis virescens and Manduca sexta. The importance of cadherin was implied by its correlation with a Cry1Ac resistant H. virescens strain (Gahan, L. J., Gould, F., and Heckel, D. G. (2001) Science 293, 857-860). In this...
