Probing virus-glycan interactions using glycan microarrays.
Glycan microarrays are surfaces that contain immobilized oligosaccharides or glycoconjugates and have proven useful in probing the interactions between glycan-binding proteins (GBPs) and individual glycans. Such glycan microarrays have been especially important in studying virus-glycan interactions, as most viruses express one or more GBPs important for pathogenesis. For studying interactions o...
متن کاملHydrogel glycan microarrays.
The technology of hydrogel microchips manufacturing, which was developed previously for covalent immobilization of DNA and proteins, was applied for the preparation of glycochips and combined glyco/protein chips. Microchips consist of hydrogel drops separated with hydrophobic surface. Spacered amino-saccharides and polyacrylamide glycoconjugates were used for immobilization. Gel elements were a...
متن کاملAre glycan biosensors an alternative to glycan microarrays?
Complex carbohydrates (glycans) play an important role in nature and study of their interaction with proteins or intact cells can be useful for understanding many physiological and pathological processes. Such interactions have been successfully interrogated in a highly parallel way using glycan microarrays, but this technique has some limitations. Thus, in recent years glycan biosensors in num...
متن کاملIntact cell adhesion to glycan microarrays.
A rapid and reproducible method was developed to detect and quantify carbohydrate-mediated cell adhesion to glycans arrayed on glass slides. Monosaccharides and oligosaccharides were covalently attached to glass slides in 1.7-mm-diameter spots (200 spots/slide) separated by a Teflon gasket. Primary chicken hepatocytes, which constitutively express a C-type lectin that binds to nonreducing termi...
متن کاملUsing glycan microarrays to understand immunity.
Host immunity represents a complex array of factors that evolved to provide protection against potential pathogens. While many factors regulate host immunity, glycan binding proteins (GBPs) appear to play a fundamental role in orchestrating this process. In addition, GBPs also reside at the key interface between host and pathogen. While early studies sought to understand GBP glycan binding spec...
