Abstract
⺠PR proteins have been identified in the pitcher fluid of N. alata. ⺠Three PR proteins including class III peroxidase (Prx) were newly identified. ⺠Prx was induced after the addition of chitin to the pitcher fluid. ⺠The proteins have two roles, digestion of prey and the antibacterial effect. ⺠The system for digesting prey has evolved from the defense system against pathogens.
