β-Exotoxin(Cat No.:R039490) is a potent, heat-stable toxin produced by certain strains of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Unlike the well-known Bt endotoxins targeting insect guts, β-Exotoxin affects a broad range of organisms, including insects, mammals, and even plants, by inhibiting RNA polymerase and disrupting protein synthesis. Due to its non-specific toxicity, its use in pest control is limited, and safety concerns have led to regulatory restrictions. However, understanding β-Exotoxin’s mechanism offers insights into microbial pathogenesis and potential applications in biotechnology and medical research.
