Lectins as Carbohydrate-binding Proteins
Lectins are cell-binding and agglutinating (glyco)proteins found in a variety of living forms. They will be defined here as homogeneous carbohydrate-binding (glyco)proteins principally of plant (seed) origin but also occurring in invertebrate (and vertebrate?) forms. In recent years, lectins have been employed in studying a wide range of biological phenomena including cell differentiation and m...
متن کاملBinding specificities of lectins to immobilized glycoproteins and oligosaccharides differ from those of immobilized lectins to oligosaccharides.
The carbohydrate-binding specificities of lectins in solution to glycoproteins and neoglycolipids immobilized on a solid phase were analyzed in order to establish a simple, rapid method for structural analysis of the carbohydrate moieties of small amounts of individual glycoproteins blotted on membrane. Eight glycoproteins containing typical O-linked tetrasaccharides or a series of typical N-li...
متن کاملLectins: Proteins with Diverse Applications
Article history: Received on: 12/04/2013 Revised on: 23/04/2013 Accepted on: 04/05/2013 Available online: 12/05/2013 Lectins are proteins that bind to carbohydrates and sugar containing substances in a specific and reversible way or precipitate glycoconjugates. These heterogeneous class of carbohydrate-binding proteins or glycoproteins of non-immune origin are capable of specific recognition of...
متن کاملLegume Lectins: Proteins with Diverse Applications
Lectins are a diverse class of proteins distributed extensively in nature. Among these proteins; legume lectins display a variety of interesting features including antimicrobial; insecticidal and antitumor activities. Because lectins recognize and bind to specific glycoconjugates present on the surface of cells and intracellular structures; they can serve as potential target molecules for devel...
متن کاملLectin-binding proteins in central-nervous-system myelin. Binding of glycoproteins in purified myelin to immobilized lectins.
The capacities of immature and mature rat brain myelin, bovine myelin and human myelin to be agglutinated by soya-bean agglutinin, Ricinus communis agglutinin, wheatgerm agglutinin, and Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin were examined. The first two lectins, which are specific for galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine, strongly agglutinated immature and mature rat myelin, weakly agglutinated bovine ...
