Abstract
Aims: The study was aimed at the molecular characterization of the flower of Mangifera indica for the presence of Pre-sequence Protease 1 gene. Place and Duration of Study: The fresh flower of Mangifera indica (Mango) were collected using secateures and taken to the Department of Biological Sciences, Nigerian Defense Academy, Kaduna for specific identification and authentication. Methodology: AccuPrep Genomic RNA Extraction Kit (K-3032) was used for the extraction of the RNA from the flower of Mangifera indica. Molecular weight of the marker gene was used in indicating a high presence of PREP1 gene in Mangifera indica flower. Results: A high presence of PREP1 gene in Mangifera indica flower was detected using the molecular weight of the amplified bands. Conclusion: A high presence of PREP1 gene in Mangifera indica flower is a sign of the possibility that the plant sample can feature in the future as a better remedy for treatment of insomnia.
