Phytochemistry
The seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris contain an inhibitor of alpha-amylase. This alpha amylase inhibitor is identified in the protein fraction of the bean. This protein binds with the active sites of alpha- amylase and prevents the starch metabolizing activity; hence it is also called as “Starch Blocker”. The alpha-amylase
inhibitor from Phaseolus vulgaris is a protein composed of
two glycosylated protomers of 30 kDa, which are cleaved into two polypeptides
of 16 and 14 kDa, respectively. |
