Alpha-arylphorin is a mitogen in the Heliothis virescens midgut cell secretome upon Cry1Ac intoxication
Insecticidal crystal (Cry) proteins produced by the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) target cells in the midgut epithelium of susceptible larvae. While the mode of action of Cry toxins has been extensively investigated, the midgut response to Cry intoxication and its regulation are not well characterized. In this work, we describe the secreted proteome (secretome) of primary mature midgut ...
متن کاملIdentification of novel Cry1Ac binding proteins in midgut membranes from Heliothis virescens using proteomic analyses.
Proteins such as aminopeptidases and alkaline phosphatases, both glycosyl-phosphatidyl-inositol (GPI) anchored proteins, were previously identified as Cry1Ac binding proteins in the Heliothis virescens midgut. To identify additional toxin binding proteins, brush border membrane vesicles from H. virescens larvae were treated with phosphatidyl inositol phospholipase C, and released proteins were ...
متن کاملA proteomic approach to study Cry1Ac binding proteins and their alterations in resistant Heliothis virescens larvae.
Binding of the Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ac toxin to specific receptors in the midgut brush border membrane is required for toxicity. Alteration of these receptors is the most reported mechanism of resistance. We used a proteomic approach to identify Cry1Ac binding proteins from intestinal brush border membrane (BBM) prepared from Heliothis virescens larvae. Cry1Ac binding BBM proteins were de...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Cry1Ac-receptor alkaline phosphatase in susceptible and resistant Heliothis virescens larvae.
We reported previously a direct correlation between reduced soybean agglutinin binding to 63- and 68-kDa midgut glycoproteins and resistance to Cry1Ac toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis in the tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens). In the present work we describe the identification of the 68-kDa glycoprotein as a membrane-bound form of alkaline phosphatase we term HvALP. Lectin blot analysis of ...
متن کاملResistance to Cry toxins and epithelial healing
Resistance to Cry toxins can develop by alterations in any of the steps in the Cry toxin mode of action. Most characterized mechanisms of resistance to Cry toxins involve alterations in enzymatic toxin processing or toxin interaction with receptors in the insect midgut epithelium. Previous reports have suggested an alternative mechanism of resistance to Cry1Ac toxin in Heliothis virescens larva...
