Aedes cadherin receptor that mediates Bacillus thuringiensis Cry11A toxicity is essential for mosquito development.
Aedes cadherin (AaeCad, AAEL024535) has been characterized as a receptor for Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti) Cry11A toxins. However, its role in development is still unknown. In this study, we modified the cadherin gene using ZFN and TALEN. Even though we obtained heterozygous deleti...
