Multiplex PCR Screening To Detect cry9 Genes in Bacillus thuringiensis Strains

Ben-Dov, Eitan, Wang, Qingfeng, Zaritsky, Arieh, Manasherob, Robert, Barak, Ze’ev, Schneider, Bert, ...

An extended PCR method was established to rapidly identify and classify Bacillus thuringiensis strains containing cry (crystal protein) genes toxic to lepidopteran, coleopteran, and dipteran pests...

Germination, Growth, and Sporulation of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis in Excreted Food Vacuoles of the Protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis

Manasherob, Robert, Ben-Dov, Eitan, Zaritsky, Arieh, Barak, Ze’ev

Spores of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis and their toxic crystals are bioencapsulated in the protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis, in which the toxin remains stable. Each T. pyriformis cell...

Branched-Chain Amino Acid Biosynthesis in Salmonella typhimurium: a Quantitative Analysis

Epelbaum, Sabine, LaRossa, Robert A., VanDyk, Tina K., Elkayam, T., Chipman, David M., Barak, Ze’ev

We report here the first quantitative study of the branched-chain amino acid biosynthetic pathway in Salmonella typhimurium LT2. The intracellular levels of the enzymes of the pathway and of the...
