Expression, purification and thermal stability evaluation of an engineered amaranth protein expressed in Escherichia coli

Background: The acidic subunit of amarantin (AAC)—the predominant amaranth seed storage protein—has functional potential and its third variable region (VR) has been modified with antihypertensive peptides to improve this potential. Here, we modified the C-terminal in the fourth VR of AAC by insertin...
