[Purification and properties of inhibitor from vegetative portion of alfalfa].

Trypsin inhibitor was isolated from the vegetative portion of alfalfa and purified 270-fold by affinity chromatography on Trypsin-Sepharose. The inhibitor was eluted by gel-filtration as a single peak with molecular weight of 6900. Disc-electrophoresis of the purified inhibitor revealed the presence of only one protein band.
