Lectin refers to carbohydrate-binding proteins, which are highly specific and are part of other molecules. They bind to certain sugars and lead to agglutination of certain cells or precipitation of polysaccharides and glycoconjugates. Lectins play a role in recognition at the molecular and cellular levels. Further, it plays a significant role in biological recognition phenomena, which involves proteins, carbohydrates, and cells. Lectins also help fungi, bacteria, and viruses to attach and bind to their chosen targets. They are abundant in nature and can be found in a variety of foods. Certain ...
Lectin refers to carbohydrate-binding proteins, which are highly specific and are part of other molecules. They bind to certain sugars and lead to agglutination of certain cells or precipitation of polysaccharides and glycoconjugates. Lectins play a role in recognition at the molecular and cellular levels. Further, it plays a significant role in biological recognition phenomena, which involves proteins, carbohydrates, and cells. Lectins also help fungi, bacteria, and viruses to attach and bind to their chosen targets. They are abundant in nature and can be found in a variety of foods. Certain food items like grains and beans should be fermented, cooked, and sprouted to minimize their lectin content. There are several healthy lectins, such as CLEC11A, which facilitate bone growth. On the other hand, certain lectins may contain powerful toxins such as ricin. They play crucial role in the innate immune system. Mannose-binding lectin is the first-line of defense to counter invading microorganisms. This book explores all the important aspects of immunology in the modern day. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
