Abstract excerpt

The pore-forming domain of Bacillus thuringiensis insecticidal Cry toxins is formed of seven amphipathic α-helices. Because pore formation is thought to involve conformational changes within this domain, the possible role of its interhelical loops in this crucial step was investigated with Cry9Ca...
