Computational and experimental prediction of human C-type lectin receptor druggability
Mammalian C-type lectin receptors are involved in many aspects of immune cell regulation such as pathogen recognition, clearance of apoptotic bodies and lymphocyte homing.

Endogenous mammalian lectin localized extracellularly in lung elastic fibers. [PDF]
An affinity-purified antibody preparation raised against a beta-galactoside-binding lectin from bovine lung was used to localize a similar lectin in rat lung by immunofluorescence and by electron microscopy after on-grid staining visualized with ...

Lectins with Anti-HIV Activity: A Review
Lectins including flowering plant lectins, algal lectins, cyanobacterial lectins, actinomycete lectin, worm lectins, and the nonpeptidic lectin mimics pradimicins and benanomicins, exhibit anti-HIV activity.

Vacuolar ATPase depletion contributes to dysregulation of endocytosis in bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
BACKGROUND Vacuolar H-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a highly conserved protein complex which hydrolyzes ATP and pumps protons to acidify vacuolar vesicles.

Structural and biochemical characterization of a new type of lectin isolated from carp eggs. [PDF]
A previously unidentified glycoprotein present in the eggs of the carp (Cyprinus carpio) was isolated and structurally characterized. The protein binds to a Sepharose 4B matrix and can be eluted with 0.4 M N-acetylglucosamine. The protein has an apparent
