TABLE 1.

Purification of PnBBI from mature seeds (10 g) of peanut interspecific advanced variety (4368-1).

Purification step Total protein (mg) Total activity (TIU)a Yield recovery (%) Specific activity (TIU/mg)b Purification fold change
Crude extract 713 6000 100 8.4 1
(NH4)2SO4 Fractionation (20-60%) 490 5164 86 10.5 1.3
Trypsin-Sepharose 4B 8.4 2500 41.6 298 35.5
Sephadex G-50 1.6 2250 37.5 1406 167

The data shown here is a representative of the purification protocol for PnBBI from three independent biological replicates*. a One TI unit is equal to 40-60% inhibition of trypsin enzyme activity by PnBBI. bSpecific inhibitory activity is defined as the number of TIU per milligram of PnBBI.*data provided as Supplementary Data Sheet 3.
