Mo-CBP3 Protein, Moringa oleifera, Recombinant (GST)

Chitin-binding protein. Has antifungal activity against F.solani, F.oxysporum, C.musae and C.gloesporoides but not against P.oligandrum. Depending on concentration the antifungal activity can be fungistatic or fungicidal. Inhibits both spore germination and mycelial growth in F.solani at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml. Has antifungal activity against C.krusei, C.albicans, C.tropicalis and C.parapsilosis. Has no chitinase, beta-glucanase or hemagglutinating activity. Acts as a flocculent. Mo-CBP3 Protein, Moringa oleifera, Recombinant (GST) is expressed in E. coli expression system with N-GST tag. The predicted molecular weight is 29.2 kDa and the accession number is P86528.
