Aromatic Residues on the Side Surface of Cry4Ba-Domain II of <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> subsp. <i>israelensis</i> Function in Binding to Their Counterpart Residues on the <i>Aedes aegypti</i> Alkaline Phosphatase Receptor
Receptor binding is a prerequisite process to exert the mosquitocidal activity of the Cry4Ba toxin of <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> subsp. <i>israelensis</i>. The beta-sheet prism (domain II) and beta-sheet sandwich (domain III) of the Cry4Ba toxin have been implicated in rec...
