The multiple roles of C-type lectin receptors in cancer [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 C-type lectin receptors are a family of immune response receptors that can bind with a broad repertoire of ligands. It can function as innative immune receptors to surveillance bacteria, fungi, and virus invasions.

C-Type Lectin Receptors in Asthma [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Asthma is a heterogeneous disease that affects approximately 300 million people worldwide, largely in developed countries. The etiology of the disease is poorly understood, but is likely to involve specific innate and adaptive responses to inhaled ...

The C‐type lectin‐like domain superfamily
The FEBS Journal, 2005 The superfamily of proteins containing C‐type lectin‐like domains (CTLDs) is a large group of extracellular Metazoan proteins with diverse functions. The CTLD structure has a characteristic double‐loop (‘loop‐in‐a‐loop’) stabilized by two highly conserved disulfide bridges located at the bases of the loops, as well as a set of conserved hydrophobic and

Lectin ligands: New insights into their conformations and their dynamic behavior and the discovery of conformer selection by lectins [PDF]
, 1998 The mysteries of the functions of complex glycoconjugates have enthralled scientists over decades. Theoretical considerations have ascribed an enormous capacity to store information to oligosaccharides, In the interplay with lectins sugar-code words of ...

Can Plant Lectins Help to Elucidate Insect Lectin-Mediated Immune Response?
Insects, 2021 Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that recognize and selectively bind to specific sugar structures. This group of proteins is widespread in plants, animals, and microorganisms, and exerts a broad range of functions.
