Abstract excerpt
Comparison of the sequences of Bacillus thuringiensis entomocidal toxins of widely differing specificity reveals six conserved domains. The role of one of the most highly conserved domains (D1) located near the N-terminus has been investigated by site directed mutagenesis at two positions. Although preliminary results indicate that the capacity of the mutants to bind to putative receptors on the plasma membrane...
