| Résumé : | The first twenty five residues of the amino terminal sequence of the β chains from lentil and pea lectins, of soybean and peanut agglutinins, and of the R and L subunits of phytohemagglutinin (PHA) were compared. Extensive homologies were found, ranging from near identity in the case of the β chains of lentil and pea lectins, to 24% identity between soybean agglutinin and L-PHA (assuming two deletions in the latter). Despite different sugar binding specificities, a common ancestry for the genes coding for leguminous lectins appears to be very likely. © 1977. |
