Abstract

To describe characteristics of a hemolysin in mosquitocidal Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. gyangiensis strain 21-2, Escherichia coli HB101 was transformed with a gene encoding hemolysin in the strain 21-2. Transformant 47 con-tained 2.5 kb DNA was selected by ELISA, immunoblot and DNA electrophoresis. Transformant 47-5 was recon-structed after digestion of the 2.5 kb DNA with Hind m. Transformant 47-5 contained 1.8 kb DNA and expressed 23 kDa Protein which had mosquitocidal activity to Aedes aegypti. The 23 kDa Protein itself in vitro didn't show hemolytic activity on human erythrocytes, but the protein had the activity after proteinase K treatment.

모기 살충성 Bacillus thuringiensis subspangiensis 21-2균주의 용혈성 내독소 단백질의 특성을 검토하고자 21-2균주의 용혈성을 가진 유전자를 Escherichia coli HBIO쎄 형질전환시켰다. 이들 중에서 형질전환 균주 47은 독소 단백질을 생산하며 2.5 kb DNA을 함유한다는 것을 효소항체법, immunoblot및 DNA전기영동법으로 확인하였다. 또한, 형질전환 균주 47-5는 2.5 kb DNA를 다시 Hind ll견 절단하여 pUC118 연결시켜서 조제하였다 그 결과형질전환 균주 47-5은 1.Bkb DNA를 함유하며, 23 kD꺼 독소 단백질을 발현하고, 발현된 독소 단백질은 Aedes aegypti모기 유충에 독성을 나타내었다. 또한 23 kDa의 내독소 단백질 그 자체로는 사람의 적혈구를 용해하지 못하였으나, proteinase K로 처리한 후에는 적혈구에 대해 용혈성을 나타내었다.
