In plants, an active defense against biotrophic pathogens is dependent on a functional continuum between the cell wall (CW) and the plasma membrane (PM). It is thus anticipated that proteins maintaining this continuum also function in defense. The legume-

Background: C-type lectin receptors, including Dectin-2, are pattern recognition receptors on monocytes and macrophages that mainly recognize sugars and sugar-like structures present on fungi.

Sensing of cell death by myeloid C-type lectin receptors [PDF]
Molecules associated with dead or dying cells can be detected by receptors on macrophages and dendritic cells. Signals from these receptors impact myeloid cell function and play a role in determining whether death is silent or proinflammatory, tolerogenic or immunogenic. Prominent among myeloid receptors detecting dead cells are C-type lectin receptors

Molecular insights into the transport lectin function of ERGIC-53 [PDF]
Secretion of proteins is an essential function of eukaryotic cells. The secretory proteins’ journey along the organelles of the exocytic pathway is initiated by the exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which defines a major rate-limiting step for ...

Towards defining the role of glycans as hardware in information storage and transfer: Basic principles, experimental approaches and recent progress [PDF]
The term `code' in biological information transfer appears to be tightly and hitherto exclusively connected with the genetic code based on nucleotides and translated into functional activities via proteins.

Understanding blood group antigen binding preferences for C-type lectin receptors holds promise for modulating immune responses, since several Gram-negative bacteria express blood group antigens as molecular mimicry to evade immune responses.

Comparative genomics of natural killer cell receptor gene clusters.
Many receptors on natural killer (NK) cells recognize major histocompatibility complex class I molecules in order to monitor unhealthy tissues, such as cells infected with viruses, and some tumors.

Protocol to identify the ligand binding site of Mincle using NMR spectroscopy
Summary: Mincle (macrophage-inducible C-type lectin, CLEC4E) is a C-type lectin immune-stimulatory receptor that can be targeted for inducing potent adjuvant effects. Mincle can recognize trehalose dimycolate and related glycolipids.

New Binding Face of C-type Lectin-like Domains
C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) is a member of the C-type lectin (like) receptor (CLR) family that uses a Ca2+ binding domain to bind specific glycans.
