Relação entre toxicidade de proteínas Vip3Aa e sua capacidade de ligação a receptores intestinais de lepidópteros-praga

The objective of this work was to evaluate the toxicity of new Vip3Aa proteins and their binding capacity to brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV) in the intestine of Spodoptera frugiperda, Anticarsia gemmatalis, and Heliothis virescens neonate larvae. The proteins expressed by the genes vip3Aa42 an...

Sumario:The objective of this work was to evaluate the toxicity of new Vip3Aa proteins and their binding capacity to brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV) in the intestine of Spodoptera frugiperda, Anticarsia gemmatalis, and Heliothis virescens neonate larvae. The proteins expressed by the genes vip3Aa42 and vip3Aa43 showed toxicity to S. frugiperda (LC50 of 78.2 and 113 ng cm-2, respectively) and A. gemmatalis (LC50 of 239.2 and 57.5 ng cm-2, respectively), but they showed low toxicity to H. virescens (LC50>5,000 ng cm-2). BBMV binding assays showed that the proteins bind effectively to the receptors on vesicles of the evaluated species, but this binding capacity is only effective on the activation of toxicity to the evaluated populations of S. frugiperda and A. gemmatalis.
