Cloning strategies for the isolation of an α-amylase inhibitor/endochitinase gene from the seeds of Coix lachryma-jobi

The aim of this work was to isolate the gene encoding a bifunctional a-amylase inhibitor/endochitinase protein from the seeds of Coix lachryma-jobi, a tropical cereal. Prior to this study, it had been demonstrated that this bifunctional protein had anti-insect and possibly anti-fungal properties. Co...
