Abstract

Objectives: Through bioinformatics analysis, predict Haemonchus contortus larvae putative receptors for Cry11Aa. Results: Using a PyDOCK predicted high affinity interaction, as demonstrated by the highly negative binding energies of -57.2, -72.8, and -68.4 respectively for HC23, H-GAL-GP, H11, and all receptors docked to the domain II of Cry11Aa. Conclusion: These results suggest that Bti Cry11Aa toxin may use the proteins HC23, H-GAL-GP, and H11 as a receptor in Haemonchus contortus larvae and by doing so, carry out its nematicidal effect.
