What is Carbohydrates in Chemistry and Biology about?

Although united by their defining feature of carbohydrate binding activity, plant lectins show great diversity in carbohydrate specificity, structure and function. Some of these proteins also exhibit other activities such as enzyme activity or the ability to bind plant hormones. This Chapter provides an overview of our present state of knowledge of the activities and structures of these lectins and discusses the current state of our information and hypotheses on the roles these proteins may play in the plant.
