Bacillus thuringiensis is a gram-positive bacterium, which produces very diverse class of protein toxins, Cry. Precise annotation of these toxins in the bacterial genomes is a very challenging problem due to the sequence similarity between different toxins can be lower than 40%. Here we describe a novel tool, CryProcessor, for searching Cry toxins in protein sequences and in raw sequencing reads.
