This flashcard defines collectins as calcium-dependent sugar-binding proteins (lectins) that have collagen-like sequences, using mannose-binding lectin (MBL) as an example.
Une famille de lectines, protéines se liant aux sucres dépendantes du calcium et contenant des séquences similaires au collagène. Un exemple est la lectine liant le mannose (MBL).
