Biological properties of loop-replaced mutants of Bacillus thuringiensis mosquitocidal Cry4Aa.

Journal of bioscience and bioengineering - 1 Sept 2009

Howlader Mohammad Tofazzal Hossain, Kagawa Yasuhiro, Sakai Hiroshi, Hayakawa Tohru

Abstract excerpt

Cry4Aa produced by Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti) exhibits a specific toxicity to Anopheles, Aedes, and Culex larvae, which are vectors of serious diseases, and formulations of Bti are used worldwide for mosquito control. In general, domain II of the Cry toxin is believed to be i...
