چکیده
Spores and parasporal crystals of Bacillus thuringiensis can be separated at moderate centrifugation speeds (10,000 to 12,000 rpm) in gradients of Renografin or sodium diatrizoate.

Investigation of Cytocidal Activity of Bacillus Thuringiensis Parasporal Toxin on CCRF-CEM Cell Line
Background & Objective: Parasporin is a parasporal protein of Bacillus thuringiensis and exhibits special cytocidal activity against human cancer cells. Similar to other insecticidal Bacillus thuringiensis crystal toxins, parasporin shows target specificity and damages the cellular membrane. In this study, different strains of Bacillus thuringiensis isolated from various regions of Iran and the...
متن کاملSeparation of Protein Crystals from Spores of Bacillus thuringiensis by Ludox Gradient Centrifugation.
A method is described for the purification of Bacillus thuringiensis protein crystals by Ludox gradient centrifugation. This method is simple, inexpensive, fast, and efficient compared with other techniques. It has been successfully used to purify and characterize the protein crystals from several B. thuringiensis strains.

During speculation, Bacillus thuringiensis produces parasporal inclusions with insecticidal activity. The parasporal inclusions produced by most subspecies of B. thuringiensis are active only against the larvae of a few lepidopteran insects. Lepidopteran-active parasporal inclusions are usually bipyramidal crystals composed of one or more 130x lCP-l^Ox 10 Mr polypeptides. These polypeptides are...
متن کاملSerological Studies on the Formation of Protein Parasporal Inclusions in Bacillus Thuringiensis
A strain of Bacillus thuringiensis has been isolated, and methods have been developed for separation of the crystalline, parasporal inclusions in a pure form. Normal sporulation with concomitant crystal formation takes place when cells are incubated under suitable conditions in a nutrient free medium. Serological techniques have been used to study the origin and development of the crystals. Rab...
متن کاملDifferentiated pattern of protein composition of crystalline inclusions of newly isolated Bacillus thuringiensis strains from Silesia in Poland.
Protein profiles of crystal delta-endotoxins were determined in twenty nine Bacillus thuringiensis strains-soil and phylloplane isolates--from Poland. Electrophoretic analysis revealed quantatively and qualitatively different patterns of delta-endotoxin crystal preparations of these B. thuringiensis strains. The crystalline parasporal inclusions of B. thuringiensis isolates were composed of two...
