Abstract
The study of the interaction of plant lectins with the target intestinal receptors of the weaning piglets by the in silico computer modelling method showed that the most probable targets for the lectin binding are the divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) and neutral amino acid transporter. Barley lectins have the greatest potential for interaction. Legume-type lectins and the OS9-like protein are the main types of reactive lectins. The addition of specific carbohydrates is the optimal method for neutralization of lectins.
