Structural and functional role of Domain I for the insecticidal activity of the Vip3Aa protein from Bacillus thuringiensis
Abstract Vip3 proteins are produced by Bacillus thuringiensis and are toxic against lepidopterans, reason why the vip3Aa gene has been introduced into cotton and corn to control agricultural pests. Recently, the structure of Vip3 proteins has been determined and consists of a tetramer where each mon...
