Legume lectin of view of protein structure. Despite the conserved structure of the legume lectin subunit, they can adopt a wide range of quaternary structures. The reason behind this remarkable variability is probably to be found in the interaction with multivalent ligands. Legume lectin The legume lectins (or L-type lectins) are a family of sugar-binding proteins or lectins found in the seeds and, in smaller amounts, in the roots, stems, leaves and bark of plants belonging to the Fabaceae family. The exact function of the legume lectins "in vivo" is unknown but they are probably involved in the defense of plants against
Myosin light chain nodes to migrate into inflammatory sites in an S1PR1-dependent manner." The proposed mechanisms of action of CD69/Myl9/12 system are related to the regulation of airway inflammatory processes and thus can prove to be a novel therapeutic target for chronic inflammatory diseases, in general . Myosin light chain A myosin light chain is a light chain (small polypeptide subunit) of myosin. Myosin light chains were discovered by Chinese biochemist Cao Tianqin (Tien-chin Tsao) when he was a graduate student at the University of Cambridge in England. Structurally, myosin light chains belong to the EF-hand family, a large family of Ca- binding
