A proposed lectin‐mediated mechanism to explain the in Vivo antihyperglycemic activity of γ‐conglutin from Lupinus albus seeds
Abstract Experiments conducted in vitro and in vivo, as well as clinical trials for hypoglycemic therapeutics, support the hypoglycemic properties of the lectin γ‐conglutin, a Lupinus seed storage protein, by a mechanism not yet been clarified. Structural studies established that binding of γ‐conglu...
