    摘要: The present invention relates to methods of designing nucleic acid molecules for improved expression of the encoded polypeptides in plants. In such methods, codon usage frequencies are biased towards codon usage frequencies of a plant virus, group of plant viruses, or a subset of nucleic acid molecules therefrom. In preferred embodiments, the encoded polypeptide affects the phenotype of the plant. The invention also pertains to nucleic acid molecules encoding insecticidal polypeptides wherein the nucleic acid molecules have been designed to have plant virus codon-biased. The invention also pertains to transgenic plants and progeny thereof with increased expression of insecticidal polypeptides for improved resistance to insects and other pests that are detrimental to plants of agricultural value.

    摘要: The invention provides nucleic acids, and variants and fragments thereof, obtained from strains of Bacillus thuringiensis encoding δ-endotoxins having pesticidal activity against insect pests. The invention further provides mutagenized nucleic acids that have been modified to encode pesticidal polypeptides such as endotoxins having improved pesticidal activity and/or altered pest specificity. Particular embodiments of the invention provide isolated nucleic acids encoding pesticidal proteins that may be optimized as well as pesticidal compositions, expression cassettes, and transformed microorganisms and plants comprising a nucleic acid of the invention. These compositions find use in methods for controlling pests, especially plant pests.

    摘要: Compositions and methods for protecting a plant from an insect pest are provided. The invention provides mutagenized nucleic acids that have been engineered to encode pesticidal polypeptides having increased resistance to proteolytic degradation by a plant protease. In particular, nucleic acid sequences encoding pesticidal polypeptides modified to comprise a proteolytic protection site that confers resistance to degradation or proteolytic inactivation by a plant protease are provided. Particular embodiments of the invention provide pesticidal polypeptide compositions and formulations, expression cassettes, and transformed plants, plant cells, and seeds. These compositions find use in methods for controlling pests, especially plant pests. Novel plant proteases, sequences encoding these proteases, and methods for their use are also provided.
