Why is it important?
Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins that are present in a variety of organisms and possess the ability to weakly bind glycans with high specificity. Lectins are now widely used in different areas such as cell and molecular biology especially as a potential therapeutic agent for cancer and immunological studies. Lectins also possess antibacterial, antifungal, antibiofilm and anticancer activities.
