摘　　要：综述了有关植物凝集素的研究进展,介绍了植物凝集素的分类、糖结合特性、近年来有关植物凝集素蛋白晶体结构的研究,以及其与糖结合能力相关的生物学功能,Plant lectins are proteins possessing at least one non-catalytic domain that binds reversibly to specific mono-or oligosaccharides. They distinguish themselves from other plant proteins by the ability of carbohydrate binding. Most plant lectins are directed to bind foreign polysacchride. Plant lectin is believed to take part in the defense responses against invader. In this paper we presented a review on the classification, characters, functions, crystal structure and functions related to the carbohydrate binding activity.
