Abstract
Many plants, animals, and microorganisms contain lectins, but relatively few studies have been conducted on lectins from mushrooms. Some lectins have been isolated from the fruiting bodies of Basidio‐mycetes fungi. Among the species studied are: Ischchnoderma res‐inosum lectin (IRA), Grifola fondosa lectin (GFL), Forties fomen‐tarius lectin (FFL), Ganoderma lucidum lectin (GLL), etc. Some properties of these lectins are presented in this paper.Keywords
