摘要：
Cry11Aa and Cyt1Aa of Bacillus thuringiensis are active against mosquitoes and show synergism. Cyt1Aa functions as a membrane receptor inducing Cry11Aa oligomerization. Here we characterized Cry11Aa helix alpha-3 mutants impaired in oligomerization and toxicity against Aedes aegypti, indicating that oligomerization of Cry11Aa is important for toxin action. Cyt1Aa did not recover the insecticidal activity of Cry11Aa mutants.
