Electrophoretic analysis of seed proteins in the dicotyledoneae

摘要

SDS-PAGE was used to analyze seed protein extracts from plants representing 58 orders of the Dicotyledoneae. In most seeds, includingMagnolia grandiflora, the most prevalent storage protein class appeared to be the 11 S or legumin-like proteins. These data suggest that the legumin-like proteins are ubiquitous throughout the plant kingdom.
