Isolation and physical characterization of hydrophobin-like proteins (HLP) from aerial conidia of metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae

The aim of this study was to isolate and physically characterized Hyrophobin-Like Proteins (HLP) from the aerial conidia of two local isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae, namely, TA and LR2. The protein samples were isolated based on their insolubility in hot Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (S...
