Protein Extraction From Plant Tissues

Part of the book series: Methods in Molecular Biology ((MIMB,volume 244))

Abstract

Plant tissues contain a wide range of proteins, which vary greatly in their properties, and require specific conditions for their extraction and purification. It is therefore not possible to recommend a single protocol for extraction of all plant proteins.
