C-Type Lectins Link Immunological and Reproductive Processes in Aedes aegypti

iScience, 2020
Summary: Physiological trade-offs between mosquito immune response and reproductive capability can arise due to insufficient resource availability. C-type lectin family members may be involved in these processes.

Ancestral roles of the Fam20C family of secreted protein kinases revealed in C. elegans. [PDF]

, 2019
Fam20C is a secreted protein kinase mutated in Raine syndrome, a human skeletal disorder. In vertebrates, bone and enamel proteins are major Fam20C substrates.

C-type lectin receptors in skin immunity: Emerging new role for CLEC12B

Advances in Biomedical and Health Sciences, 2022
C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) are a superfamily of transmembrane proteins, which consist of one or several C-type lectin-like domains and intracellular signaling motifs, such as immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) or immunoreceptor ...

C-type lectin receptors orchestrate antifungal immunity [PDF]

Nature Immunology, 2012
Immunity to pathogens critically requires pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) to trigger intracellular signaling cascades that initiate and direct innate and adaptive immune responses. For fungal infections, these responses are primarily mediated by members of the C-type lectin receptor family.

Differentiation-dependent glycosylation of cells in squamous cell epithelia detected by a mammalian lectin [PDF]

, 2002
The squamous stratified epithelia contain a proliferative (harboring mitotic activity) and a differentiating compartment. Due to the potential of protein-carbohyd rate interactions to regulate cellular activities we introduced a mammalian lectin to cyto-

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 ...
