Abstract excerpt
A tropical legume, Vigna unguiculata, was explored in order to identify potential allergens among the abundant seed proteins and to attempt their crystallographic study. Salt fractionation of the seed extract followed by chromatographic separation led to the purification of a 25 kDa protein. Gel-filtration chromatography of the 80% ammonium sulfate precipitation fraction led to separation of this protein in pure...
