Application of Lectin Microarrays for Biomarker Discovery
Many proteins in living organisms are glycosylated. As their glycan patterns exhibit protein‐, cell‐, and tissue‐specific heterogeneity, changes in the glycosylation levels could serve as useful indicators of various pathological and physiological states.

Lectin receptor kinases in plant innate immunity
A key feature of innate immunity is the ability to recognize and respond to potential pathogens in a highly sensitive and specific manner. In plants, the first layer of defense is induced after recognition by pattern recognition receptors of microbe ...

Comparative characterization of lectins of pathogenic and saprophytic filamentous fungi Fusarium solani [PDF]
In the present study, we isolated, purified and characterized the lectin of the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium solani 6 and compared it with the properties of the lectin of the saprophytic strain Fusarium solani 4. Electrophoretically homogeneous lectin

130 years of Plant Lectin Research
Lectins are proteins with diverse molecular structures that share the ability to recognize and bind specifically and reversibly to carbohydrate structures without changing the carbohydrate moiety.

The Application of Organotypic Brain Slice Culture to Study Microglial Differentiation by Lycopersicon esculentum and Sambucus nigra Lectin Histochemistry [PDF]
Microglia cells are a subset of central nervous system (CNS) macrophages. Changes in the CNS such as injury, or developmental events, follow by morphological and physiological changes in microglia cells.

Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Penicillium sp. lectins [PDF]
Lectins are a diverse group of proteins of non-immune origin that interact specifically with glycans. Owing to their specificity, they can mediate various cellular and molecular recognition processes.

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.
