Plant Lectins and Lectin Receptor-Like Kinases: How Do They Sense the Outside?

Lectins are fundamental to plant life and have important roles in cell-to-cell communication; development and defence strategies. At the cell surface; lectins are present both as soluble proteins (LecPs) and as chimeric proteins: lectins are then the extracellular domains of receptor-like kinases (L...
