Electron diffraction captures high-resolution structures from in vivo protein nanocrystals of Bacillus thuringiensis

Bacillus thuringiensis is one of the most widely used biopesticides worldwide.

Bacillus thuringiensis is one of the most widely used biopesticides worldwide. This is owing to the highly-specific pesticidal-proteins various strains produce in the form of nanocrystals. Structure determination from such crystals remains difficult because their small size…
