Jr. Chen et al., ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF IMMUNOSTIMULATIVE PEPTIDES FROM SOYBEAN, Journal of nutritional biochemistry, 6(6), 1995, pp. 310-313
Immunostimulative peptides were isolated from the pepsin digest of soy
bean by ion exchange, gelfiltration, and reversed-phase high-performan
ce chromatography. The peptides formed blastoids against the splenocyt
es of C3H/HeN mice. The amino acid sequences of these peptides were: A
la-Glu-Ile-Asn-Met-Pro-Asp-Tyr, Ile-Gln-Gln-Gly-Asn, and Ser-Gly-Phe-A
la-Pro, respectively.
