Transgenic plants expressing ω-actx-hv1a and snowdrop lectin (gna) fusion protein show enhanced resistance to aphids

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Angharad M. R. Gatehouse from the Plant-Insect Molecular Interactions, Newcastle Institute for, School of Biology, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK have published the research work: Transgenic plants expressing ω-ACTX-Hv1a and snowdrop lectin (GNA) fusion protein show enhanced resistance to aphids, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: This study shows that the fusion_protein Hv1a/GNA is toxic toward both the peach-potato aphid and the grain aphid.

SUMMARY

    The neurotoxin portion of the Hv1a/GNA fusion_protein was modified with an amino_acid substitution (K34Q) to improve its stability during yeast . . .
