ABSTRACT:
A method for modifying structural gene sequences to enhance the expression of the protein product is disclosed. Also disclosed are novel structural genes which encode insecticidal proteins of B.t.k. HD-1, B.t.k. HD-73, B.t. tenebrionis, B.t. entomocidus, 2 protein of B.t.k. HD-1, and the coat protein of potato leaf roll virus.
