Virus and bananas
A slightly altered form of a substance found in bananas could hold the potential to fight many viruses, according to new research from the University of Michigan Medical School and Life Sciences Institute, and other institutions. BanLec, short for banana lectin, was first found to have antiviral properties in 2010 – but also caused inflammation. After further research, the team has engineered the BanLec molecule slightly, cracking the “sugar code” that allows sugar molecules on the surface of cells to interact with lectins.
