BanLec BanLec (also BanLec-I or Banana lectin) is a lectin from the jacalin-related lectin family isolated from the fruit of the bananas ''Musa acuminata'' and ''Musa balbisiana''. BanLec is one of the predominant proteins in the pulp of ripe bananas〔 and has binding specificity for mannose and mannose-containing oligosaccharides.〔 A 2010 study reported that BanLec was a potent inhibitor of HIV replication.〔 ==Activity== BanLec has a number of similarities to Concanavalin A and binds to mannose-related carbohydrate structures.〔 It was discovered due to its highly immunogenic properties—BanLec induces a strong IgG4 antibody response〔—and appears to be an important antigen involved in banana allergies. BanLec protein expression can be induced by the plant hormone methyl jasmonate.〔
