[Gentiana triflora antifungal peptide-1] GtAFP1 is an antifungal protein purified from leaves of Gentiana triflora (Kiba et al, 2005). The deduced amino acid sequence of the cDNA shows a high degree of amino acid identity with peroxiredoxin Q from varies plant species. Recombinant GtAFP1 protein has antifungal activity and also thioredoxin-dependent peroxidase activity. Overexpression of GtAFP1 in tobacco plants improves tolerance not only against fungal diseases but also against oxidative stress.
