UV protection and insecticidal activity of microencapsulated Vip3Ag4 protein in Bacillus megaterium

In this study, secretable Vip3Ag4 protein was encapsulated in Bacillus megaterium and used for quantitative bioassays, in order to determine the UV photoprotective capacity of the cell, for preventing inactivation of the insecticidal activity of the protein. The non-encapsulated and purified protein...
