摘要:
The inventors provide a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof for use in a method of treatment of the human or animal body by therapy or prophylaxis, such as for use in a method of treating or preventing an infection in or on a subject by a microorganism. Also provided is the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to kill, or inhibit the growth of, a microorganism that is pathogenic to a human or an animal at a site that is not on or in the human or animal body.

The inventors provide the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to prevent or inhibit spoilage of a foodstuff by a microorganism. Also provided is a method of preventing or inhibiting spoilage of a foodstuff by a microorganism comprising administering to a foodstuff in need thereof an effective amount of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof.
摘要:
The inventors provide the use of a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism to inhibit the growth of and/or kill a plant pathogenic microorganism on a plant; the use of a chelating agent to increase the activity of an antimicrobial that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism; a method of inhibiting the growth of and/or killing a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising administering to a plant in need thereof a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism; and a method of increasing the activity of an antimicrobial that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising using said antimicrobial with a chelating agent. Also provided is a composition comprising a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism, use of said composition to inhibit the growth of and/or kill a plant pathogenic microorganism on a plant, and a method of inhibiting the growth of and/or killing a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising administering to a plant in need thereof said composition. Further provided is the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to kill, or inhibit the growth of a plant pathogenic bacterium on a plant, and a method of killing, or inhibiting the growth of a plant pathogenic bacterium on a plant, said method comprising administering to said plant a composition comprising an effective amount of an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof.

摘要:
This invention is related to a protein from the seeds, cotyledons or plantlets of Lupinus genus, as well as to the way of producing the protein in recombinant form and of expressing the protein in genetically modified plants. The invention relates to methods of its use, or of any modification of the protein that maintains its biological properties, as a supplement in human or animal nutrition and as a fungicide, insecticide, growth promoter, fertilizer or in the preparation of genetically modified organisms.
摘要:
This invention is related to the extraction of a protein from the seeds, cotyledons or plantlets of Lupinus genus, as well as to the way of producing it in recombinant form and of expressing it in genetically modified plants. Due to the exceptional characteristics exhibited by this protein in what concerns: its potent antifungal and anti-Oomycete activity, which confers great potential to the protein as a fungicide, (2) its strong plant growth promoter activity, particularly notorious on unhealthy or naturally weakened plants, (3) its extreme resistance to denaturation, which allows the use of the protein under field conditions, (4) its great susceptibility to proteolytic attack, which makes it harmless to the environment and nontoxic for man, and (5) its well balanced amino acid composition. It is claimed its use, or of any modification of the protein that maintains its biological properties, as a supplement in human or animal nutrition and as a fungicide, insecticide, growth promoter, fertilizer or in the preparation of genetically modified organisms.
