P252, a 252-kDa Bombyx mori protein located on the larval midgut membrane, has been shown to bind strongly with Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1A toxins (Hossain et al. Appl Environ Microbiol 70:4604-4612, 2004). P252 was also shown to bind chlorophyllide (Chlide) to form red fluorescence-emitting comple...
