Immunobiology of C-Type Lectin Receptors
, 2013 C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) that signal via the kinase Syk are an important class of pattern recognition receptors in the innate immune system. They recognize pathogen- and host-derived danger signals, and are best known for their role in antifungal immunity.

Necrosis: C-Type Lectins Sense Cell Death [PDF]
Current Biology, 2009 Recent studies have shown that C-type lectins, a family of surface receptors known to recognize microbial carbohydrate moieties, also sense products from dying cells and transduce inflammatory signals that modulate the immune system.

Purification and biological effects of a C-type lectin isolated from Bothrops moojeni
Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010 Snake venom proteins from the C-type lectin family have very distinct biological activities despite their highly conserved primary structure, which is homologous to the carbohydrate recognition region of true C-type lectins.

Sex differences in carbohydrate metabolism are linked to gene expression in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The male and the hermaphrodite forms of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) differ markedly in anatomy, nervous system and behavior at adulthood.

“Sweet Talk”: Closing in on C Type Lectin Signaling [PDF]
Immunity, 2005 C type lectins recognize pathogens by binding to pathogen-specific carbohydrate residues. The finding reported by Rogers et al. (2005) in this issue of Immunity, that ligand binding by the C type lectin Dectin-1 leads to recruitment of the tyrosine kinase Syk and is critical to subsequent cytokine production by the cell, will surely inspire further ...

Tetranectin, a trimeric plasminogen‐binding C‐type lectin [PDF]
Protein Science, 1997 AbstractTetranectin, a plasminogen‐binding protein belonging to the family of C‐type lectins, was expressed in E. coli and converted to its native form by in vitro refolding and proteolytic processing. Recombinant tetranectin—as well as natural tetranectin from human plasma—was shown by chemical cross‐linking analysis and SDS‐PAGE to be a homo‐trimer ...
