摘要:
The invention provides the mutants and coding genes of trichosanthin (TCS). The mutants thereof are the TCS mutants with the single or double alternation of tyrosine-55 and aspartate-78 (counted from N-terminus), wherein the tyrosine-55 is mutated to an aliphatic amino acid and aspartate-78 is mutated to an amino acid with low hydrophilicity. This invention also relates to the application of TCS mutants and their coding genes in the drug development to treat carcinoma, AIDS and other diseases.
