Abstract:Protease inhibitors (PIs) are a ubiquitous, diverse group of molecules present in multiple forms in all organisms. These inhibitors inactivate proteases from predators/pathogens in addition to regulating intracellular proteolysis. In addition to intracellular localization, storage organs of plants are also a potential site of protease inhibitors. Proteins with trypsin inhibitory activity were isolated from Nigella sativa seed extracts by ammonium sulphate precipitation. Extraction conditions were optimized by … Show more
