- sequence identity refers to the number (%) of matches (identical amino acid residues) at positions from an alignment of two polypeptide sequences. Sequence identity is determined by comparing the sequences when they are aligned to maximize overlap and identity while minimizing sequence interruptions. In particular, the sequence identity can be determined using any of the many global or local alignment algorithms, depending on the length of the two sequences. Sequences of similar length are preferably aligned using global alignment algorithms (eg Needleman & Wunsch, J. Mol.

- substitution designates the replacement of one amino acid residue with another chosen from among 20 natural standard amino acid residues, rare natural amino acid residues and amino acid residues unnatural.
- substitution refers to the replacement of an amino acid residue with another chosen from among the 20 natural standard amino acid residues (G, P, A, V, L, I, M, C , F, Y, W, H, K, R, Q, N, E, D, S and T).
- the substitution (s) can be conservative or non-conservative substitutions.
- substitution refers to a substitution of one amino acid residue with another that has similar chemical or physical properties (size, charge or polarity).
- conservative substitutions are made among (i) basic amino acids (arginine, lysine and histidine), (ii) acid amino acids (glutamic acid and aspartic acid), (iii) polar amino acids (glutamine and asparagine or serine, threonine and tyrosine), (iv) hydrophobic amino acids (methionine, leucine, isoleucine and valine), (v) aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tryptophan) and (vi) small amino acids (glycine, alanine).

According to a particular embodiment, the peptide used according to the invention has a size of 50 to 60 amino acids.
- the peptide used according to the invention can comprise the sequence of formula (I) fused with another protein domain. This protein domain can for example be a signal sequence or a tag (or label).
- the peptide can be a precursor which undergoes post-translational modifications making it possible to obtain the mature and active form of the peptide. It can thus include a translocation signal sequence and recognition and / or cleavage sites allowing it to undergo these post-translational modifications.
- the peptide is a precursor of a mature pesticidal or insecticidal peptide, said precursor comprising an N-terminal translocation signal sequence.
- the signal sequence can in particular be the sequence M- [R / K] -LL- [Y / H] -GFLIIMLT- [M / I] - [Y / H] -LS - [V / I] -Q (SEQ ID NO: 33).
