- CRY1DA1 LEPIDOPTERAN-ACTIVE CRY1DA1 AMINO ACID SEQUENCE VARIANT PROTEINS

摘要

Provided are engineered Cry1Da amino acid sequences that exhibit improved inhabitant insecticidal activity and an improved range of phosphorus relative to the naturally occurring Cry1Da protein toxin. Polynucleotide sequences contemplated for use in the expression of improved proteins in plants are also provided. Certain embodiments provide for compositions containing insect inhibiting amounts of engineered proteins as well as recombinant plants, plant parts, and seeds containing polynucleotide constructs encoding at least one of the engineered proteins.
