Abstract

Trimeresurus stejnegeri lectin (TSL) was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris under the control of alcohol oxidase (AOX1) promoter. The recombinant protein, which was glycosylated, can be purified by one-step affinity chromatography. The purified recombinant TSL shared similar sugar-binding activity and Specificity with the native protein as determined by hemagglutination and enzyme-linked lectin binding Assays.

Keywords: C-TYPE LECTIN, PICHIA PASTORIS, Trimeresurus stejnegeri lectin (TSL), alcohol oxidase (AOX1) promoter, galactose-binding C-type, mutagenesis, alcohol oxidase (AOX1)

Therapeutic Proteins and Peptides of Plant Origin

Plants are still the major repository of biologically active substances. In the last two decades, however, natural peptides and proteins of plant origin have gained increasing attention due to their pharmacological activities over a variety of human illnesses, including those mediated by infections and parasitosis and those involving different cellular ...read more
