LOPEZ PAZOS, SA. THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF Bacillus thuringiensis TOXINS: A REVIEW. Acta biol.Colomb. [online]. 2007, vol.12, n.2, pp.19-32. ISSN 0120-548X.

Structure-based protein engineering of Bacillus thuringiensis d-endotoxins may direct the search for variants with broader susceptible species spectra, optimal potency, and stability properties. Here, we revised the more important characteristics of the Cry and Cyt proteins three-dimensional structure; it is possible to conclude that an obvious general model exists with specific properties according to its function and target organism
