US Patent:

56747470, Oct 7, 1997
Filed:

May 12, 1995
Appl. No.:

8/440520
Inventors:

Bruce D. Hammock - Davis CA
Terry N. Hanzlik - Chapman, AU
Lawrence G. Harshman - Dixon CA
Bryony C. Bonning - Davis CA
Vernon K. Ward - Davis CA
Assignee:

The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:

C12N 1586
C12N 1552
US Classification:

4353201
Abstract:

A diagnostic or control composition is useful to characterize or control insects and comprises a nucleotide sequence coding for juvenile hormone esterase (JHE). The coding sequence may be combined with a promoter sequence regulating the transcription thereof in a recombinant expression vector for use in controlling insects having a juvenile hormone esterase dependency. Preferred embodiments of the invention are recombinant baculoviruses in which a mutated JHE coding sequence provides relatively rapid speed of kill in insects.
