Specific Epitopes of Domains II and III of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ab Toxin Involved in the Sequential Interaction with Cadherin and Aminopeptidase-N Receptors in Manduca sexta

The Bacillus thuringiensis Cry toxins are specific to different insects. In Manduca sexta cadherin (Bt-R1) and aminopeptidase-N (APN) proteins are recognized as Cry1A receptors. Previous work showed that Cry1Ab binds to Bt-R1 promoting the formation of a pre-pore oligomer that binds to APN leading t...
