Mutational analysis of the carbohydrate binding activity of the tobacco lectin [PDF]

, 2010
At present the three-dimensional structure of the tobacco lectin, further referred to as Nictaba, and its carbohydrate-binding site are unresolved. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional model for the Nictaba domain based on the homology between ...

Symbiotic Gene Sym31 Controls the Presence of a Lectinlike Glycoprotein in the Symbiosome Compartment of Nitrogen-Fixing Pea Nodules

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
The distribution of a lectinlike glycoprotein, PsNLEC-1, was examined with a specific antiserum in nodule tissue from a symbiotically defective pea mutant, Sprint2Fix¯(sym31), and the parent line, Sprint2.

Signaling pathways for transduction of the initial message of the glycocode into cellular responses [PDF]

, 1998
The sugar units of glycan structures store information and establish an alphabet of life. The language of the oligosaccharide coding units is deciphered by receptors such as lectins and the decoded message can be transduced by multiple signaling pathways.

Animal Lectins [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1997
Protein and lipid glycosylation is no longer considered as a topic whose appeal is restricted to a limited number of analytical experts perseveringly pursuing the comprehensive cataloguing of structural variants. It is in fact arousing curiosity in various areas of basic and applied bioscience.
