Expression of a cloned Bacillus thuringiensis delta-endotoxin gene in Bacillus subtilis.
The entire coding region of the Bacillus thurigiensis HD73 crystal protein gene was subcloned from plasmid pJWK20 into the integration vector pUG2-15. This plasmid expresses chloramphenicol resistance when integrated into the Bacillus subtilis chromosome in the outH locus near the recE region. The correct molecular organization of the integrated plasmid was verified by hybridization to Southern...
متن کاملAccumulation of the insecticidal crystal protein of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki in post-exponential-phase Bacillus subtilis.
A gene from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki that codes for a Lepidoptera-specific insecticidal toxin (delta-endotoxin) was engineered for expression in Bacillus subtilis. A low-copy-number plasmid vector that replicates in Escherichia coli and B. subtilis was constructed to transform B. subtilis with gene fusions first isolated and characterized in E. coli. Naturally occurring promoter s...
متن کاملSpecificity of Bacillus thuringiensis Delta-Endotoxin.
The insecticidal activity of the delta-endotoxins of 14 Bacillus thuringiensis strains belonging to 12 subspecies was determined against Pieris brassicae, Heliothis virescens, and Spodoptera littoralis. Larvae of P. brassicae were highly susceptible to purified crystals of strains of B. thuringiensis subsp. thuringiensis and B. thuringiensis subsp. morrisoni, whereas H. virescens responded best...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki Strain HD73
Bacillus thuringiensis is a Gram-positive bacterium that produces intracellular protein crystals toxic to a wide variety of insect larvae. We report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strain HD73 from the Centre OILB (Institut Pasteur, France), which belongs to serotype 3ab and is toxic to lepidopteran larvae.
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki Strain HD-1
We report here the complete genome sequence of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strain HD-1, which serves as the primary U.S. reference standard for all commercial insecticidal formulations of B. thuringiensis manufactured around the world.
