Abstract: A method is provided for use in solid phase chemical synthesis such as in the synthesis of polypeptides, peptoids, and other molecules synthesized by solid phase methods. The method is used to identify compounds having activity against a selected target, wherein the compounds are present in a mixture obtained from a combinatorial library. A bead distributor probe is also provided. The probe is used to extract beads from a population of beads, and then deliver the bead to a selected location. A capillary bead insert is also provided, as well as a bead distribution system which includes both a bead distributor probe and a capillary bead insert.

Abstract: The genes encoding a novel class of insecticidal proteins have been isolated and characterized from a strain of Bacillus thuringiensis. Both the nucleic and amino acid sequences for the proteins are disclosed. The nucleic acid molecules are utilized in the transformation of host microorganisms and production of transgenic plants which are resistant to insects. Also, the gene encoding for the insect's receptor of the insecticidal protein has been isolated and characterized. Novel processes and methods for controlling plants pests are provided.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to a novel class of proteins, and their receptors. Novel processes, assays and methods for controlling plant pests are provided.
