Abstract excerpt
The native pumpkin 2S albumin, a multifunctional protein, possess a variety of potential biotechnologically exploitable properties. The present study reports the characterization of recombinant pumpkin 2S albumin (rP2SA) and unraveling of its potential DNA/RNA binding site. The purification and characterization of the rP2SA established that it retains the characteristic α-helical structure and exhibited...
