Plant lectins

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1992
This volume surveys the chemistry, biochemistry, biosynthesis, metabolism and pharmacological properties of lectins. Lectins, which are most commonly found in plants, are widespread natural products with striking biological activities. Their specific ability to recognise and bind to simple or complex saccharides facilitates their role as effective ...

Nucleocytoplasmic plant lectins

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2010
During the last decade it was unambiguously shown that plants synthesize minute amounts of carbohydrate-binding proteins upon exposure to stress situations like drought, high salt, hormone treatment, pathogen attack or insect herbivory. In contrast to the 'classical' plant lectins, which are typically found in storage vacuoles or in the extracellular ...

Plant lectins: an overview

Peer Review, 2023
Lectins are involved in a range of biological mechanisms related to recognition and binding to carbohydrates. This ability is possible due to the presence of a carbohydrate recognition domain with capacity to differentiate between various oligosaccharides without modify the molecules which it binds.

Antitumor effect of plant lectins

Natural Toxins, 1997
AbstractThis review examines the literature data concerning the biological activity of plant lectins. Numerous studies have reported that these substances possess toxic, cytotoxic, antitumor, and anticarcinogenic properties. A brief description of the biological properties of plant lectins, as well as the effect of plant lectins on normal and malignant

Subunit assembly of plant lectins

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2007
Lectins are a structurally diverse group of carbohydrate recognizing proteins that are involved in various biological processes and exhibit substantial structural diversity. Interestingly, in spite of having varied carbohydrate-binding specificities, they show modest variation in their secondary and tertiary structure.

Antinutritional properties of plant lectins

Toxicon, 2004
Lectins are carbohydrate binding (glyco)proteins which are ubiquitous in nature. In plants, they are distributed in various families and hence ingested daily in appreciable amounts by both humans and animals. One of the most nutritionally important features of plant lectins is their ability to survive digestion by the gastrointestinal tract of ...
