  • Patent number: 9951348
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for controlling pests are provided. The methods involve transforming organisms with a nucleic acid sequence encoding an insecticidal protein. In particular, the nucleic acid sequences are useful for preparing plants and microorganisms that possess insecticidal activity. Thus, transformed bacteria, plants, plant cells, plant tissues and seeds are provided. Compositions are insecticidal nucleic acids and proteins of bacterial species. The sequences find use in the construction of expression vectors for subsequent transformation into organisms of interest, as probes for the isolation of other homologous (or partially homologous) genes. The insecticidal proteins find use in controlling, inhibiting growth or killing lepidopteran, coleopteran, dipteran, fungal, hemipteran, and nematode pest populations and for producing compositions with insecticidal activity.

  • Publication number: 20170153257
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of estimating LogD of compounds comprising a ligand operatively linked to a recognition element. The methods generally involve contacting the compounds with a matrix, measuring the interaction of the compounds with the matrix and relating the interaction of the compounds with the matrix to LogD of the compounds. Also, described herein, are novel compounds which include a ligand operatively linked to a recognition element and linkers that connect the ligand to the recognition element.
