Myeloid C-type lectins in innate immunity
Nature Immunology, 2006 C-type lectins expressed on myeloid cells comprise a family of proteins that share a common structural motif, and some act as receptors in pathogen recognition. But just as the presence of leucine-rich repeats alone is not sufficient to define a Toll-like receptor, the characterization of C-type lectin receptors in innate immunity requires the ...

An evolutionary perspective on C‐type lectins in infection and immunity
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2012 Host–pathogen interactions have coevolved for many years. On the one hand, the human immune system consists of innate and adaptive immune cells that function to defeat pathogens, and on the other hand, pathogens have coevolved to use the system for their own propagation.

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2020
C-type lectins are the largest and most diverse family of mammalian carbohydrate-binding proteins. They share a common protein fold, which provides the unifying basis for calcium-mediated carbohydrate recognition. Their involvement in a multitude of biological functions is remarkable.

Genomic analysis of C-type lectins
Biochemical Society Symposia, 2002Many biological effects of complex carbohydrates are mediated by lectins that contain discrete carbohydrate-recognition domains. At least seven structurally distinct families of carbohydrate-recognition domains are found in lectins that are involved in intracellular trafficking, cell adhesion, cell–cell signalling, glycoprotein turnover and innate ...

C-Type Lectin Receptors in Phagocytosis
2020C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) are a family of transmembrane proteins having at least one C-type lectin-like domain (CTLD) on the cell surface and either a short intracellular signaling tail or a transmembrane domain that facilitates interaction with a second protein, often the Fc receptor common gamma chain (FcRγ), that mediates signaling.

C-type lectin receptors in antifungal immunity
Trends in Microbiology, 2008Fungal infections represent a significant health burden, especially in immunocompromised individuals, yet many of the underlying immunological mechanisms involved in the recognition and control of these pathogens are unclear. The identification of the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) has shed new insights on innate microbial recognition and the initiation of

C-type lectins belong to a superfamily of receptors that share structural homology in their carbohydrate recognition domains and often bind to carbohydrates in a Ca-dependent fashion. Whereas endocytic C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) trigger the receptor-mediated endocytosis of soluble ligands, myeloid CLRs in innate immunity act as pattern recognition ...

C-Type Lectin Receptors in Antifungal Immunity
2020Most fungal species are harmless to humans and some exist as commensals on mucocutaneous surfaces. Yet many fungi are opportunistic pathogens, causing life-threatening invasive infections when the immune system becomes compromised. The fungal cell wall contains conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), which allow the immune system to ...

Insect C-Type Lectins in Microbial Infections
2020C-type lectins (CTLs) are a family of carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD)-containing proteins that bind to ligands in a calcium-dependent manner. CTLs act as important components of insect innate immune responses, such as pattern recognition, agglutination, encapsulation, melanization, phagocytosis and prophenoloxidase activation, as well as gut ...
