The extensive use of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) in pest management has driven the evolution of pest resistance to Bt toxins, particularly Cry1Ac. Effective management of Bt resistance necessitates a good understanding of which pest proteins interact with Bt toxins. In this study, we screened a Helicoverpa armigera larval midgut cDNA library and captured 208 potential Cry1Ac-interacting proteins. Among these, we further examined the interaction between Cry1Ac and a previously unknown Cry1Ac-interacting protein, HaDALP (H. armigera death-associated LIM-only protein), as well as its role in toxicology. The results revealed that HaDALP specifically binds to both the Cry1Ac protoxin and activated toxin, significantly enhancing cell and larval tolerance to Cry1Ac. Additionally, HaDALP was overexpressed in a Cry1Ac-resistant H. armigera strain. These findings reveal a greater number of Cry1Ac-interacting proteins than previously known and demonstrate, for the first time, that HaDALP reduces Cry1Ac toxicity by sequestering both the protoxin and activated toxin.
