  • Novel strains of bacillus thuringiensis and pesticidal composition comprising them
    Publication number: 20030091550
    Abstract: The present invention relates particularly to a strain of Bacillus thuringiensis characterized in that it expresses the gene sigma E (&sgr;E) and does not sporulate at all or little sporulates or does not produce any viable spores. The invention also relates to a pesticide composition containing said strain of Bacillus thuringiensis.

    Inventors: Didier Lereclus, Herve Agaisse
  • Nucleotide sequences for the control of the expression of DNA sequences in a cell host
    Patent number: 6140104
    Abstract: The invention relates to sequences of nucleotides of bacteria, particularly Gram positive bacteria such as bacteria of the Bacillus type and more particularly sequences of nucleotides of the gene CryIIIA for the control of the expression of DNA sequences in a cellular host. The invention relates particularly to an expression system comprising a DNA sequence susceptible of being involved in the control of the expression of a coding sequence of nucleotides. Said DNA sequence comprises a promoter, as well as a sequence of nucleotides called "downstream region", situated between the promoter and the coding sequence of the gene to be expressed, and susceptible of acting at the post-transcriptional level during the expression of the gene. Preferably, the downstream region comprises a nucleotide sequence S2 comprising an essentially complementary region at the extremity 3' of the RNA 16S of the ribosomes of Bacillus type bacteria.
