Vertebrate lectins, Comparison of properties of beta-galactoside- binding lectins from tissues of calf and chicken
Beta-galactoside-binding lectins were isolated from various calf tissues and from chicken hearts by affinity chromatography on asialofetuin-Sepharose, and were compared with respect to biochemical characteristics, binding properties, antigenic cross-reactivity, and cellular localization. The lectins are all thiol group-requiring, divalent cation-independent dimers, of apparent monomer mol wt 12...
متن کاملPurification and properties of lung lectin. Rat lung and human lung beta-galactoside-binding proteins.
Lung is one of the organs of the rat with a particular abundance of haemagglutinating activity that is inhibited by beta-galactosides. This lectin activity can be attributed to a single protein that has been purified from rat lung; a similar protein has been purified from human lung. The molecular weights and subunit structures were estimated from gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulphate/poly...
متن کاملGalectins, galactoside-binding mammalian lectins: clinical application of multi-functional proteins.
Galectins are beta-galactoside binding mammalian lectins and they share homologous carbohydrate recognition domains. To date, 11 members of galectin family have been cloned and identified. They have been shown to play roles in diverse biological events, such as embryogenesis, oncogenesis, adhesion and proliferation of the cells, receptor for advanced glycation end products, mRNA splicing, bacte...
متن کاملExpression of two different endogenous galactoside-binding lectins sharing sequence homology.
The endogenous beta-D-galactoside-binding lectins of UV-2237-IP3 fibrosarcoma cells consist of two polypeptides with molecular weights of 14,500 (L-14.5) and 34,000 (L-34). Recently we constructed complementary DNA (cDNA) libraries from these cells in the expression vector lambda gt11 and isolated and characterized cDNA clones encoding the two lectin species (A. Raz et al., Exp. Cell Res., 173:...
متن کاملEndogenous /3-galactoside-specific Lectins in Rabbit Tissues
Soluble /3-galactoside-specific lectins have been detected in many rabbit tissues and are relatively abundant in certain organs. These lectins are apparently identical to the lectin in rabbit bone marrow, which may be involved in inter-erythroblast associations during differentiation, and are very similar in structure and activity to lectins described in a number of species both in adult and em...
