Abstract:Plant lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins that are ubiquitously found in almost all plant species and have different structures and functions depending on the sources. Purification of lectins from their plant sources and determination of their sugar specificity become an important goal for the evaluation of their potential biomedical applications. Here, we report the affinity purification of a D-galactose specific lectin from the seeds of Meizotropis buteiformis Voight., and its physicochemical parameter… Show more
