Abstract
The tomato ripening mutant, ripening inhibitor (rin), whose fruits fails to ripen, has been identified and widely studied. The RIN gene has been cloned. Here we present the expression of a truncated form of the RIN protein from tomato and the preparation of a polyclonal antibody against it. The resulting antibody recognized the RIN of crude protein extracts from different tomato tissues. The protein level of RIN in tomato was detected with this antibody by western blot, which suggested the accumulation of RIN protein increased gradually during tomato fruit ripening.
