Carbohydrate/glycan-binding specificity of legume lectins in respect to their proposed biological functions
The lectins, proteins which specifically recognize carbohydrate moieties, have been extensively studied in many biochemical and structural aspects in order to establish the molecular basis of this non-catalytic event. On the other hand, their clinical and agricultural potentials have been growing fa...
