NON-RECESSIVE BT TOXIN RESISTANCE CONFERRED BY AN INTRACELLULAR CADHERIN MUTATION IN FIELD-SELECTED POPULATIONS OF COTTON BOLLWORM.

Non-recessive Bt toxin resistance conferred by an intracellular cadherin mutation in field-selected populations of cotton bollworm.

Transgenic crops producing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins have been planted widely to control insect pests, yet evolution of resistance by the pests can reduce the benefits of this approach.Recessive mutations in the extracellular domain of toxin-binding cadherin proteins that confer resistance to Bt toxin Cry1Ac by disrupting toxin binding hav

The Origin and Evolution of Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs): An Ancestral Family of Flavin Monooxygenases.

The Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs) are enzymes belonging to the "Class B" of flavin monooxygenases and are capable of performing exquisite selective oxidations.These enzymes have been studied from a biotechnological perspective, but their physiological substrates and functional roles are widely unknown.Here, we investigated the origin, 9002
