Title: Uporaba makrocipinov kot pesticidnih učinkovin [SL], Use of Macrocipines as Pesticidal Agents [EN]
Description: The subject of the invention is the use of macrocypins as pesticidal active ingredients for plant protection. Macrocipins are a group of proteins that are naturally present in the fungus Macrolepiota procera. The use of these plant protection proteins is possible in two ways. The first is by using genetically modified plants to which a polynucleotide sequence encoding at least one of the proteins of the present invention is stably incorporated into the genome. Another way is the direct application of proteins to plants. In this case, a polynucleotide sequence encoding at least one of the proteins of the present invention is inserted into a heterologous expression vector for the production of a recombinant protein in a bioreactor. These proteins can be applied directly to the plants we want to protect after the cleaning process. The polypeptides of the present invention are particularly useful for protecting against pests of agricultural plants, such as groups of insects of the orders Lepidoptera, Hemiptera, Diptera and Coleoptera, preferably against the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata).
