Carbohydrate Binding Proteins: Lectins

Mihika Tripati

Lectins are multivalent proteins with the capacity to recognize and tie assorted carbohydrate structures. The glyco -binding and various molecular structures observed in these protein classes make them a huge and heterogeneous group with a wide extend of natural activities in microorganisms, creatures and plants. Lectins from plants and creatures are commonly utilized in coordinate defense against pathogens and in resistant control. This survey centers on sources of creature and plant lectins, portraying their useful classification and tridimensional structures, relating these properties with biotechnological purposes, including antimicrobial exercises. In this work centers on structural-functional illustration of assorted lectin bunches, shedding a few light on host-pathogen intelligent; it moreover analyzes their rise as biotechnological devices through quality control and improvement of new drugs.
