Insect Hsp90 Chaperone Assists Bacillus thuringiensis Cry Toxicity by Enhancing Protoxin Binding to the Receptor and by Protecting Protoxin from Gut Protease Degradation

Bacillus thuringiensis Cry proteins are pore-forming insecticidal toxins with specificity against different crop pests and insect vectors of human diseases. Previous work suggested that the insect host Hsp90 chaperone could be involved in Cry toxin action. Here, we show that the interaction of Cry t...
