Kunitz-type trypsin inhibitors from legume seeds have been characterized structurally. The
presence of Cys–Cys in single or double chains shows a new pattern of proteins structurally …

Seed proteins that inhibit proteinases are classified in families based on amino acid
sequence similarity, nature of reactive site and mechanism of action, and are used as tools …

Plants possess several defense mechanisms against pathogenic attack. One of these
defenses is the use of protease inhibitor proteins, which interfere in the development and …

Plant protease inhibitors are diverse in number and in specificity towards various proteolytic
enzymes. This book focuses on the isolation, structure, characterization, physiochemical and …

Inga laurina is a tree that belongs to the Mimosoideae sub-family of the Leguminosae. A
protein inhibitor of trypsin (ILTI) was isolated from its seeds by ammonium sulphate …

A novel trypsin inhibitor was purified from the seeds of Peltophorum dubium (Spreng.). SDS-
PAGE under reducing conditions showed that the inhibitor consisted of a single polypeptide …

Leguminous plants in the tropical rainforests are a rich source of proteinase inhibitors and
this work illustrates isolation of a serine proteinase inhibitor from the seeds of Archidendron …

A proteinase inhibitor (BgPI) was purified from black gram, Vigna mungo (cv. TAU-1) seeds
by using ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by ion-exchange, affinity and gel-filtration …

A proteinaceous trypsin inhibitor was purified from Crotalaria pallida seeds by ammonium
sulfate precipitation, affinity chromatography on immobilized trypsin–Sepharose and TCA …

A second trypsin inhibitor (DMTI-II) was purified from the seed of Dimorphandra mollis
(Leguminosae-Mimosoideae) by ammonium sulfate precipitation (30–60%), gel filtration …
