Relevance
WGA is a N acetylglucosamine specific lectin and is synthesized in developing and germinating embryos, roots and meristematic part of the leaves. Lectin interaction with certain carbohydrates are as specific as enzyme to substrate or antigen to antibody interactions and have been used to study protein glycosylation. WGA has been reported to have a role in dormancy and plant defence, but its characteristic biochemical properties and its predominance in growing and meristematic tissues, and its osmotic- and drought-stress inducibility suggest that this protein might be involved in a much wider range of functions. -
