Lectins: Structures and Lectin-Sugar Interactions.

open access: yesmembrane, 1994
The carbohydrate-binding domain of Bauhinia purpurea lectin (BPA), a galactose and lactose-binding lectin, was investigated from Asp-N endoproteinase digests of BPA. A peptide which interacted with lactose was purified by means of lactose-Sepharose column chromatography. It consisted of 9 amino acids and its amino acid sequence was DTWPNTEWS.

Isolation and Molecular Characterization of Two Lectins from Dwarf Elder (Sambucus ebulus L.) Blossoms Related to the Sam n1 Allergen

open access: yesToxins, 2013
Sambucus species contain a number of lectins with and without antiribosomal activity. Here, we show that dwarf elder (Sambucus ebulus L.) blossoms express two D-galactose-binding lectins that were isolated and purified by affinity chromatography and gel ...

Identifying Systemic Lupus Erythematosus From Serum Proteomic Profiles Using Machine Learning and Genetic Risk Stratification

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Proteome‐wide risk models for lupus remain underexplored. We developed classification models to identify lupus from serum proteomic profiles. Methods Patients with lupus and individuals with other autoimmune diseases in the UK Biobank were included.

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Homocitrullinated Peptides Drive Pro‐Inflammatory T Cell Responses in a Humanized Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

From Interferon Signature to the Clinical Landscape: Type I Interferonopathies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective TypeI interferonopathies are heterogeneous diseases driven by dysregulated type I interferon (IFN‐I) signaling. Diagnosis is challenging due to clinical/molecular variability and the need for IFN‐I quantification. The aim of this study was to characterize the clinical, immunologic, genetic, molecular profiles of patients with suspected ...

IgG Glycosylation‐Dependent CLEC7A Signaling Drives Podocyte Dysfunction in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that can lead to end‐stage kidney disease and increased mortality. IgG from patients with LN displays abnormal glycosylation, contributing to podocyte injury.
