چکیده

The strain 273 B, the type strain of a H serotype of Bacillus thuringiensis not yet characterized: B. thuringiensis subsp. cameroun, serotype H32, was isolated from soil samples collected in Cameroon. This strain produces cuboidal parasporal bodies composed of two major proteins of 53 kDa and 35 kDa. N-terminal sequences of the major proteins share no homology with published sequences. Only the 35 kDa protein is susceptible to digestion by trypsin. A complex array of 9 plasmids was revealed.

Complete 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.

Identification of a gene for Cyt1A-like hemolysin from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. medellin and expression in a crystal-negative B. thuringiensis strain.

A gene designated cyt1Ab1, encoding a 27,490-Da protein, was isolated from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. medellin (H30 serotype) by using an oligonucleotide probe corresponding to the cyt1Aa1 gene. The sequence of the Cyt1Ab1 protein, as deduced from the sequence of the cyt1Ab1 gene, was 86% identical to that of the Cyt1Aa1 protein and 32% identical to that of the Cyt2Aa1 protein from B. thurin...

Two novel strains of Bacillus thuringiensis toxic to coleopterans.

Two novel strains of Bacillus thuringiensis were isolated from native habitats by the use of genes coding for proteins toxic to coleopterans (cryIII genes) as hybridization probes. Strain EG2838 (isolated by the use of the cryIIIA probe) contained a cryIIIA-hybridizing plasmid of approximately 100 MDa and synthesized crystal proteins of approximately 200 (doublet), 74, 70, 32, and 28 kDa. Strai...

Production of a Thermostable and Alkaline Chitinase by Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki Strain HBK-51

This paper reports the isolation and identification of chitinase-producing Bacillus from chitin-containing wastes, production of a thermostable and alkaline chitinasese, and enzyme characterization. Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki HBK-51 was isolated from soil and was identified. Chitinase was obtained from supernatant of B. thuringiensis HBK-51 strain and showed its optimum activity at ...
