The Cry gene in Bt cotton encodes a protein that is toxic to certain insect pests like caterpillars and not harmful to humans because the protein specifically targets the insect digestive system, which is different from humans. Additionally, the protein is broken down during digestion, so it does not accumulate in the human body. Extensive studies have confirmed the safety of Bt crops for human consumption.
