Globulins         Legumin,  found in the  seeds of  pea, horse-bean, lentil and vetch.

The protein of wheat is called gluten—that of Indian corn is zein—that of beans and peas is legumin.

In the seeds of leguminous and a few other kinds of plants large quantities of a substance termed legumin are found.

Albumen, fibrin, and legumin constitute the three important members of the "Nitrogenous" constituents of plants.

The flesh-forming constituent of the leguminous seeds is not gluten, as in the grain of the cereals, but a substance termed legumin, which so closely resembles the cheesy matter of milk that it has also received the name of vegetable casein.
