Glycans are critical to every facet of biology and medicine, from viral infections to embryogenesis. Tools to study glycans are rapidly evolving, however the majority of our knowledge is deeply dependent on binding by glycan binding proteins (e.g ...

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.

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.

Multivalent lectin-glycan interactions are widespread in biology and are often exploited by pathogens to bind and infect host cells. Glycoconjugates can block such interactions and thereby prevent infection.

Alginate Modification and Lectin-Conjugation Approach to Synthesize the Mucoadhesive Matrix
Alginates are natural anionic polyelectrolytes investigated in various biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, and 3D bioprinting. Functionalization of alginates is one possible way to provide a broad range of requirements for

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 ...

Gene Expression Profiling of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Cells Preceding a Clinical Diagnosis of Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction. [PDF]
BackgroundChronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD) is the main limitation to long-term survival after lung transplantation. Although CLAD is usually not responsive to treatment, earlier identification may improve treatment prospects.MethodsIn a nested ...

Optimisation of the enzyme-linked lectin assay for enhanced glycoprotein and glycoconjugate analysis [PDF]
Lectin’s are proteins capable of recognising and binding to specific oligosaccharide tructures found on glycoproteins and other biomoloecules. As such they have found tility for glycoanalytical applications.
