our studies on the activity and turnover of the lectin indicated that the peak of lectin activity ( units/mg of protein ) that occurred at age 12 days appeared to be brought about by two means : an increase in the activity of the lectin molecule itself ( units/micrograms of lectin ) that occurred at age 8 days , and 1.5-fold increase in the absolute rate of lectin synthesis at age 11 days .
