<i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> insecticidal proteins (<i>Bt</i> ICPs) are reliable and valuable options for pest management in crops. Protein engineering of <i>Bt</i> ICPs is a competitive alternative for resistance management in insects. The primary focus of the study was to reiterate the translational utility of a protein-engineered chimeric Cry toxin, Cry1AcF, for its broad spectrum insecticidal efficacy using molecular modeling and docking studies. In-depth bioinformatic analysis was undertak ...[more]
