Diabetic alteration versus postnatal maturation of rat kidney glycoconjugates — comparative detection by lectin probes [PDF]
A panel of ten lectins with different carbohydrate specificities, including three original lectin preparations (MPFA, LABA, and LVA), was used for the investigation of rat kidney glycoconjugate remodeling during postnatal morphogenesis, and the findings ...

Lectins, lectin genes, and their role in plant defense. [PDF]
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that bind gly? cans of glycoproteins, glycolipids, or polysaccharides with high affinity (Goldstein and Hayes, 1978). Because of their binding specificity, they have the capability to serve as recognition molecules within a cell, between cells, or be? tween organisms. It is assumed that lectins play fundamental

Glycopolymer code based on well-defined glycopolymers or glyconanomaterials and their biomolecular recognition [PDF]
Advances in the glycopolymer technology have allowed the preparation of more complex and well-defined glycopolymers/particles with several architectures from linear to globular structures (such as micelles, dendrimers, and nanogels).

The search for lectin isolated from the mycelial cultures of Laetiporus sulphureus
This study proved the presence of lectin in mycelial cultures of Laetiporus sulphureus. Lectin was excreted into the medium and its erythroagglutinating activity was not high.
