During the hydrated part of seed life, i.e. maturation, germination, that is very sensitive to virus,
fungi and bacteria. Many proteins involved in the microbial defense mechanism of plants. Plant
seeds contain high concentration of many antimicrobial proteins. Puroindolines (13 kDa) are the
most abundant proteins isolated from wheat endosperm by phase partitioning with the nonionic
detergent Triton X-114. Puroindoline is the main component of a new family of proteins that
has been suggested to exert an antimicrobial activity in plant seeds . Antimicrobial peptides
play a role in the immune systems of animals and plants by limiting pathogen infection and
growth. Puroindoline may also be a membrano toxin that might play a role in the defense
mechanism of plants against microbial pathogens. In this review, properties and importance of
Puroindoline protein is proposed. Thus, deserve further studies aimed at establishing their
possible future application in the field of food and health care.
