[Fragment of the gene encoding chymotrypsin and trypsin inhibitor protein of potato tubers].

Product of polymerase chain reaction designated as PKPIJ-B was isolated after amplification from genomic DNA of potato (Solarium tuberosum L., Zhukov Jubilee cultivar) using the designed primers. Nucleotide sequence of PKPIJ-B was determined and amino acid sequence of protein was restored. Analysis of this sequence has allowed us to suggest that isolated gene fragment encodes chymotrypsin and trypsin inhibitor protein (PKCI-23 potato Kunitz-type chymotrypsin inhibitor) of potato tubers.
