INVITRO ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF A RADISH (RAPHANUS-SATIVUS L) SEED PROTEIN HOMOLOGOUS TO NONSPECIFIC LIPID TRANSFER PROTEINS

A basic 9-kD protein was purified from seeds of radish (Raphanus sativus L.). The 43 amino-terminal amino acids show extensive sequence identity with nonspecific lipid transfer proteins from other plant species. The radish seed nonspecific lipid transfer protein-like protein inhibits the growth of s...

Description
Summary:A basic 9-kD protein was purified from seeds of radish (Raphanus sativus L.). The 43 amino-terminal amino acids show extensive sequence identity with nonspecific lipid transfer proteins from other plant species. The radish seed nonspecific lipid transfer protein-like protein inhibits the growth of several fungi in vitro.
