Lectins are proteins that are subject of intense investigations. Information on lectin from
chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) with respect to its biological activities are very limited. In this …

This study aimed to evaluate the abilities of plant and algae lectins to inhibit planktonic
growth and biofilm formation in bacteria and yeasts. Initially, ten lectins were tested on …

Bacteria from the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) cause highly contagious pneumonia
among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Among them, Burkholderia cenocepacia is one of the …

A 35 kDa rabbit erythrocyte agglutinating lectin from the seeds of Cicer arietinum was
purified and designated as CAL. The lectin was inhibited by fetuin and N-acetyl-d …

Molecular diversity studies of 19 rhizobia isolates from chickpea were conducted using
simple sequence repeats (SSR) and 16S rDNA-RFLP markers. Phenotypic characterization …

To study the interactions between a Rhizobium tropici strain and lectins isolated from the
seeds of Canavalia ensiformis (ConA) and Canavalia brasiliensis (ConBr), a lectin …

Plant proteomics has made tremendous contributions in understanding the complex
processes of plant biology. Here, its current status in India and Nepal is discussed. Gel …

Plantas contêm lectinas, ligantes de carboidratos e proteínas hemaglutininantes, capazes
de induzir respostas biológicas em células de plantas e animais. Portulaca elatior é uma …

RESUMO O número de casos de morbimortalidade em pacientes com feridas crônicas vem
