The protein exhibits taste modification properties that are similar to those of Miraculin, a well-known taste modifying protein. However it is the only natural protein in the world that exhibits both sweet tasting and … Continue reading Production of Curculin (Neoculin – a taste-modifying protein) through genetic egineering
