A series of plasmids bearing the binary toxin genes of Bacillus sphaericus 2297 or 2317.3, the 100-kDa toxin gene of B. sphaericus SSII-1, or the 130-kDa (cryIVB) toxin gene of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis were constructed and introduced into Ancylobacter aquaticus by electroporation. The transformed A. aquaticus cells exhibited significant toxicity towards mosquito larvae, demonstrating a potential use of recombinant A. aquaticus for biological control of mosquitoes.
构建了一系列携带球形芽孢杆菌2297或2317.3的二元毒素基因、球形芽孢杆菌SSII-1的100 kDa毒素基因或苏云金芽孢杆菌以色列亚种的130 kDa(cryIVB)毒素基因的质粒,并通过电穿孔法将其导入水生弯曲杆菌。转化后的水生弯曲杆菌细胞对蚊虫幼虫表现出显著毒性,表明重组水生弯曲杆菌在蚊虫生物防治方面具有潜在用途。
