A type of protein found in seeds, especially legume seeds like beans and peas.
From Latin conglutinare (to glue together), because this protein has adhesive properties that help hold plant tissues together.
Conglutin is one reason bean seeds are so tough and waxy—the protein acts like nature's glue, keeping the seed protected until it's ready to grow into a plant.
