Functional expression and activity of the recombinant antifungal defensin PvD(1)r from Phaseolus vulgaris L. (common bean) seeds

BACKGROUND: Defensins are basic, cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptides that are important components of plant defense against pathogens. Previously, we isolated a defensin, PvD(1), from Phaseolus vulgaris L. (common bean) seeds. RESULTS: The aim of this study was to overexpress PvD(1) in a prokaryoti...
