Protein profiling of different plant tissues from herb Phyllanthus Niruri

Herb Phyllanthus niruri (P. niruri) is known to have various pharmacological functions including anticancer, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-hypertensive and also anti-diabetic properties. In this research, the proteomic part of P. niruri was studied to determine the bioactive peptides that respon...
