description This contribution to the Italian ``Workshop sui Monte Carlo, la Fisica e le Simulazioni a LHC'', held at LNF, Frascati, in February, May and October 2006, summarises the status of parton density functions (PDF's) and the impact of their uncertainties on the LHC physics. Emphasis is given to methods of contraining PDF's using LHC data. Moreover, the advantages of the so-called PDF reweighting technique, which enables to quickly estimate PDF uncertainties with Monte Carlo events, are also presented.
