A peptide designated cicerarin, with an N-terminal amino acid sequence VKSTGRADDDLAVKTKYLPP dissimilar from known proteins and peptides and a molecular mass of 8kDa, was isolated from seeds of the green chickpea Cicer arietinum cv green chickpea. Cicerarin was isolated with a procedure that involved ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on Affi-gel blue gel, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. Cicerarin was unadsorbed on DEAE-cellulose and adsorbed on Affi-gel blue gel in 10mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.3). Cicerarin exerted antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea, Mycosphaerella arachidicola, and Physalospora piricola. The antifungal activity was preserved after exposure to 100 degrees C for 15min.
从绿鹰嘴豆(Cicer arietinum cv green chickpea)种子中分离出一种名为鹰嘴豆素(cicerarin)的肽,其N端氨基酸序列为VKSTGRADDDLAVKTKYLPP,与已知蛋白质和肽不同,分子量为8 kDa。鹰嘴豆素的分离过程包括在DEAE-纤维素上进行离子交换色谱、在Affi-gel蓝凝胶上进行亲和色谱以及在Superdex 75上通过快速蛋白质液相色谱进行凝胶过滤。在10 mM Tris-HCl缓冲液(pH 7.3)中,鹰嘴豆素不被DEAE-纤维素吸附,但被Affi-gel蓝凝胶吸附。鹰嘴豆素对灰葡萄孢(Botrytis cinerea)、花生球腔菌(Mycosphaerella arachidicola)和梨孢盘菌(Physalospora piricola)具有抗真菌活性。在100℃下暴露15分钟后,其抗真菌活性得以保留。
