Two types of water-soluble chlorophyll proteins were isolated from Lepidium virginicum L. grown in Japan. The protein isolated from the leaves (CP663L) had a low chlorophyll a/b ratio (1.5–1.7), and that from the stems (CP663S) had a high ratio (3.4–3.5). CP663S showed the same crystal forms and almost the same molecular weight and subunit composition as CP663I.
