A computational approach for exploring carbohydrate recognition by lectins in innate immunity [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2011 Recognition of pathogen-associated carbohydrates by a broad range of carbohydrate binding proteins is central to both adaptive and innate immunity. A large functionally diverse group of mammalian carbohydrate binding proteins are lectins, which often ...

Carbohydrate recognition by rotaviruses
Journal of Structural and Functional Genomics, 2014 Rotaviruses are a global health concern causing severe childhood diarrhea. Though the mechanisms mediating rotavirus cell entry require further characterisation, it is acknowledged that an essential and critical step in rotavirus infection is the virus ...

CH/π Interactions in Carbohydrate Recognition. [PDF]
Molecules, 2017 Many carbohydrate-binding proteins contain aromatic amino acid residues in their binding sites. These residues interact with carbohydrates in a stacking geometry via CH/π interactions. These interactions can be found in carbohydrate-binding proteins, including lectins, enzymes and carbohydrate transporters.

Biomimetic carbohydrate recognition [PDF]
Chemical Society Reviews, 2020 Binding saccharides with non-covalent interactions is challenging, especially in the natural medium of water, but synthetic carbohydrate receptors can be surprisingly effective.
