This is mainly determined by the arsenal of crystal proteins that the insecticidal activity, usually restricted to a few bacterium produces during sporulation. Here we describe the properties of species within one particular order of insects. To date, these toxin proteins and the current knowledge of the basis for their specificity. toxins for insect species in the orders Lepidoptera Assessment of phylogenetic relationships of the three domains of the active (butterflies and moths), Diptera (flies and toxin and experimental results indicate how sequence divergence in mosquitoes), Coleoptera (beetles and weevils) and combination with domain swapping by homologous recombination might Hymenoptera (wasps and bees) have been identified. have caused this extensive range of specificities. A small minority of crystal toxins shows activity against non-insect species such as nematodes3. A few Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is an endospore-forming toxins have an activity spectrum that spans two or bacterium characterized by the presence of a protein three insect orders – most notably Cry1Ba, which is crystal within the cytoplasm of the sporulating cell active against larvae of moths, flies and beetles4.

In this work, we present a comparative analysis of toxin-binding capacities of proteolytically processed Cry3A, Cry3B and Cry3C toxins to brush border membranes (BBMV) of the Colorado potato beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata (CPB), a major potato coleopteran-insect pest. Competition experiments showed that the three Cry3 proteolytically activated toxins share a common binding site. Also heterologous competition experiments showed that Cry3Aa and Cry3Ca toxins have an extra binding site that is not shared with Cry3Ba toxin. The pore formation activity of the three different Cry3 toxins is analysed. High pore-formation activities were observed in Cry3 toxins obtained by proteolytical activation with CPB BBMV in contrast to toxins activated with either trypsin or chymotrypsin proteases. The pore-formation activity correlated with the formation of soluble oligomeric structures. Our data support that, similarly to the Cry1A toxins, the Cry3 oligomer is formed after receptor binding and before membrane insertion, forming a pre-pore structure that is insertion-competent.

External Editor: Anne-Brit Kolstø Received: 2 May 2014; in revised form: 28 September 2014 / Accepted: 29 September 2014 / Published: 22 October 2014 Abstract: Insect-specific toxins derived from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) provide a valuable resource for pest suppression. Here we review the different strategies that have been employed to enhance toxicity against specific target species including those that have evolved resistance to Bt, or to modify the host range of Bt crystal (Cry) and cytolytic (Cyt) toxins. These strategies include toxin truncation, modification of protease cleavage sites, domain swapping, site-directed mutagenesis, peptide addition, and phage display screens for mutated toxins with enhanced activity. Toxin optimization provides a useful approach to extend the utility of these proteins for suppression of pests that exhibit low susceptibility to native Bt toxins, and to overcome field resistance.

  • The First Cry2ac-Type Protein Toxic to Helicoverpa Armigera: Cloning and Overexpression of Cry2ac7 Gene from SBS-BT1 Strain of Bacillus Thuringiensis
    toxins Article The First Cry2Ac-Type Protein Toxic to Helicoverpa armigera: Cloning and Overexpression of Cry2ac7 Gene from SBS-BT1 Strain of Bacillus thuringiensis Faiza Saleem 1,2 and Abdul Rauf Shakoori 1,* 1 School of Biological Sciences, University of the Punjab, Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore 54590, Pakistan; [email protected] 2 Department of Biotechnology, Lahore College for Women University, Lahore 54590, Pakistan * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected] Academic Editor: Anne-Brit Kolstø Received: 26 August 2017; Accepted: 27 October 2017; Published: 3 November 2017 Abstract: The Cry (crystal) proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis are known to have toxicity against a variety of insects and have been exploited to control insect pests through transgenic plants and biopesticides. B. thuringiensis SBS BT-1 carrying the cry2 genes was isolated from soil samples in Pakistan. The 2-kb full length cry2Ac gene was cloned, sequenced, and submitted to the EMBL DNA database (Accession No. AM292031). For expression analysis, Escherichia coli DH5α was transformed with the fragment sub-cloned in pET22b expression vector using NdeI and HindIII restriction sites, and later confirmed by restriction endonuclease analysis. To assess the toxicity of Cry2Ac7 protein against lepidopteran and dipteran insects, BL21 (codon plus) strain of E. coli was further transformed with the recombinant plasmid. The 65-kDa protein was expressed in the form of inclusion bodies up to 180 OD units per liter of the medium. Inclusions were washed with a buffer containing 1.5% Triton-X 100 and >90% pure Cry2Ac7 was obtained. The inclusion bodies were dissolved in 50 mM K2CO3 (pH 11.5), dialyzed, and freeze-dried.

  • Cooperation and Bacterial Pathogenicity: an Approach to Social Evolution C Alfonso Molina1,3* and Susana Vilchez2
    Molina and Vilchez Revista Chilena de Historia Natural 2014, 87:14 http://www.revchilhistnat.com/content/87/1/14 REVIEW Open Access Cooperation and bacterial pathogenicity: an approach to social evolution C Alfonso Molina1,3* and Susana Vilchez2 Abstract Kin selection could provide an explanation for social behavior in bacteria. The production of public goods such as extracellular molecules is metabolically costly for bacteria but could help them to exploit nutrients or invade a host. Some bacterial cells called social cheaters do not produce public goods; however, they take advantage of these extracellular molecules. In this review, the relationships between social behavior, cooperation, and evolution of bacterial pathogenicity are analyzed. This paper also examines the role of horizontal transfer of genes encoding for virulence factors and how the movement of mobile genetic elements would influence the pathogenicity and social relationships. Moreover, the link between ecological relationships and evolution in entomopathogenic bacteria, focusing on Bacillus thuringiensis is considered. Finally, the findings obtained with B. thuringiensis are extrapolated on Bacillus pumilus 15.1, an entomopathogenic strain whose pathogenicity is not understood yet. Keywords: Cooperation; Evolution; Pathogenicity; Public goods; Sociability Introduction (Brown 1999), adhesive polymers (Rainey and Rainey The social relationships of microorganisms are based on 2003), or siderophores (West and Buckling 2003), amongst a wide range of extracellular actions produced by indi- others. This social behavior is, from a metabolic point of vidual cells, which can affect the reproductive efficiency view, costly for the individual cells, although it is beneficial of other nearby cells.

  • Association of Orfx-P47 Gene Clusters with Toxin Genes in Clostridial and Non-Clostridial Bacterial Species
    toxins Article Looking for the X Factor in Bacterial Pathogenesis: Association of orfX-p47 Gene Clusters with Toxin Genes in Clostridial and Non-Clostridial Bacterial Species Maria B. Nowakowska, François P. Douillard and Miia Lindström * Department of Food Hygiene and Environmental Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Helsinki, 00014 Helsinki, Finland; maria.nowakowska@helsinki.fi (M.B.N.); francois.douillard@helsinki.fi (F.P.D.) * Correspondence: miia.lindstrom@helsinki.fi Received: 9 December 2019; Accepted: 29 December 2019; Published: 31 December 2019 Abstract: The botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) has been extensively researched over the years in regard to its structure, mode of action, and applications. Nevertheless, the biological roles of four proteins encoded from a number of BoNT gene clusters, i.e., OrfX1-3 and P47, are unknown. Here, we investigated the diversity of orfX-p47 gene clusters using in silico analytical tools. We show that the orfX-p47 cluster was not only present in the genomes of BoNT-producing bacteria but also in a substantially wider range of bacterial species across the bacterial phylogenetic tree. Remarkably, the orfX-p47 cluster was consistently located in proximity to genes coding for various toxins, suggesting that OrfX1-3 and P47 may have a conserved function related to toxinogenesis and/or pathogenesis, regardless of the toxin produced by the bacterium. Our work also led to the identification of a putative novel BoNT-like toxin gene cluster in a Bacillus isolate. This gene cluster shares striking similarities to the BoNT cluster, encoding a bont/ntnh-like gene and orfX-p47, but also differs from it markedly, displaying additional genes putatively encoding the components of a polymorphic ABC toxin complex.
