Food safety assessment of Cry8Ka5 mutant protein using Cry1Ac as a control Bt p...
Farias, Davi Felipe; Viana, Martônio Ponte; Oliveira, Gustavo Ramos; Santos, Vanessa Olinto; Pinto, Clidia Eduarda Moreira; Viana, Daniel AraújoCry8Ka5 is a mutant protein from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) that has been proposed for developing trans genic plants due to promising activity against coleopterans, like Anthonomus grandis (the major pest of Brazilian cotton culture). Thus, an early food safety assessment of Cry8Ka5 protein could provide valu able information to support its use as a harmless biotechnological tool. This study aimed to evaluate ...
Biossegurança alimentar da proteína antifúngica Mo-CBP3 de sementes de Moringa ...
Pinto, Clidia Eduarda MoreiraMo-CBP3 is a chitin binding protein purified from Moringa oleifera seeds which has an apparent molecular mass of 18.0 kDa and consists of multiple heterodimeric isoforms. Mo-CBP3 is a highly stable protein that has a broad spectrum of activity against phytopathogenic fungi and maintains its secondary structure and antifungal activity at extreme temperatures and different pH values. Thus, the Mo-CBP3 protein pre...
