The distinct properties of natural and GM cry insecticidal proteins [PDF]
Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering Reviews, 2017 The Cry toxins are a family of crystal-forming proteins produced by the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. Their mode of action is thought to be to create pores that disrupt the gut epithelial membranes of juvenile insects. These pores allow pathogen entry into the hemocoel, thereby killing the insect.
