Abstract
Disclosed are the entire protein and nucleic acid coding sequences for unprocessed and mature trichosanthin protein from Trichosanthes kirilowii. A recombinant trichosanthin protein produced from the coding sequence, and the trichosanthin protein with amino-terminal and/or carboxy-terminal extensions are also described. Primers derived from the coding sequence are disclosed for use in obtaining the coding sequences of ribosome-inactivating-proteins which have regions of amino acid sequence identical to those of trichosanthin. Further, a multigene family of ribosome-inactivating-protein encoding genes of Trichosanthes kirilowii is also described.
