Abstract:Cyclotides, cysteine‐rich peptides, are derived from various plant sources. Within the Fabaceae family, Clitoria ternatea Linn distinguishes itself as the only species that has been confirmed to contain cyclotides in its tissues. Several investigations have been undertaken to identify and evaluate the activity of cyclotides derived from the plant. However, the investigation of cyclotides derived from mature pods of C. ternatea remains unexplored. To fill this gap, this study utilized three different extraction… Show more
