A series of deletion mutants have been constructed, in which varying numbers of amino acids have been deleted from both the N- and C-termini of both the 51.4- and 41.9-kDa toxins of Bacillus sphaericus. The results show that between 34-39 and 52-54 amino acids respectively at the N- and C-termini of the 51.4-kDa protein, are not essential for toxicity. In the case of the 41.9-kDa protein, the removal of only 7 amino acids from the C-terminus abolishes toxicity whilst at least 17 amino acids can be deleted from the N-terminus without loss of toxicity. A fusion protein with the 51.4-kDa derived sequence N-terminal to the 41.9-kDa sequence yielded a protein of Mr 87 kDa which was not toxic by itself. When supplemented with cells expressing only the 51.4-kDa protein, toxicity was restored. In contrast, another fusion protein, in which the gene order was reversed, was shown to be fully active in toxicity assays.
