Helix α-3 inter-molecular salt bridges and conformational changes are essential for toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis 3D-Cry toxin family

Bacillus thuringiensis insecticidal Cry toxins break down larval midgut-cells after forming pores. The 3D-structures of Cry4Ba and Cry5Ba revealed a trimeric-oligomer after cleavage of helices α-1 and α-2a, where helix α-3 is extended and made contacts with adjacent monomers. Molecular dynamic simul...
