INSECTICIDAL PROTEINS AND METHODS FOR THEIR USE

Abstract: this disclosure relates to the field of molecular biology. provided are novel genes that encode pesticidal proteins. these pesticidal proteins and the nucleic acid sequences that encode them are useful in preparing pesticidal formulations and in the production of transgenic pest-resistant plants. methods to create or alter pesticidal proteins are provided for altered or enhanced pesticidal activity.

CPC Classification: C07K14/325 (PEPTIDES (peptides in foodstuffs ; obtaining protein compositions for foodstuffs, working-up proteins for foodstuffs ; preparations for medicinal purposes ; peptides containing beta-lactam rings ; cyclic dipeptides not having in their molecule any other peptide link than those which form their ring, e.g. piperazine-2,5-diones, ; ergot alkaloids of the cyclic peptide type ; macromolecular compounds having statistically distributed amino acid units in their molecules, i.e. when the preparation does not provide for a specific; but for a random sequence of the amino acid units, homopolyamides and block copolyamides derived from amino acids ; macromolecular products derived from proteins ; preparation of glue or gelatine ; single cell proteins, enzymes ; genetic engineering processes for obtaining peptides ; compositions for measuring or testing processes involving enzymes ; investigation or analysis of biological material ))
