latex from ripe and unripe fruit. Repeated wounding results in either accumulation or activation of enzyme as well as papain, chymopapain and more cysteine proteases
Papaya latex is usually harvested from fruit skin of green papaya fruits by mechanical wounding
additional information
gene expression patterns of the papaya PLCP genes in different tissues are assessed by transcriptome sequencing and quantitative RT-PCR. Most of the papaya PLCP genes of subfamily III are expressed at high levels in leaf and green fruit tissues
