Plant lectins in cancer therapeutics: Targeting apoptosis and autophagy-dependent cell death.

Pharmacological Research, 2019
Plant lectins are non-immunoglobin in nature and bind to the carbohydrate moiety of the glycoconjugates without altering any of the recognized glycosyl ligands.

Cold Lectins

Vox Sanguinis, 1963
SummaryPlant agglutinins are described which act more strongly as temperature is decreased. Crotalaria mucronata as well as variants of Phaseolus lunatus contain pronounced cold agglutinins against B cells while their action on A1‐cells is not enhanced with decreasing temperature.

Lectins and Biocontrol

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1997
The harmful effects of chemical pesticides on the environment and human health have inspired a search for safer, environmentally-friendly control alternatives. The great advances in biotechnology, supported by basic studies utilizing molecular biology tools, have made biological control (i.e., the use of antagonistic microorganisms, fungi, or bacteria ...

Synthetic Lectins

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 2009
Carbohydrate recognition presents a difficult challenge to supramolecular chemists, especially in the natural medium of water. After two decades of research, it has at last been possible to develop biomimetic receptors which perform well in aqueous solution.

Nucleocytoplasmic lectins

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2004
This review summarizes studies on lectins that have been documented to be in the cytoplasm and nucleus of cells. Of these intracellular lectins, the most extensively studied are members of the galectin family. Galectin-1 and galectin-3 have been identified as pre-mRNA splicing factors in the nucleus, in conjunction with their interacting ligand, Gemin4.

Mushroom lectins in biomedical research and development.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2019
Lectins are unique biorecognition proteins which recognize and interact with various cell surface carbohydrates/glycoproteins. These ubiquitous molecules are involved in various cell-cell interactions and can be exploited to analyze cell surface ...

Insect C‐type lectins in innate immunity

Developmental and Comparative Immunology, 2017
C‐type lectins (CTLs) are a family of proteins that contain characteristic modules of carbohydrate‐recognition domains (CRDs) and they possess the binding activity to ligands in a calcium‐dependent manner.

LECTINS*

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1970
SUMMARYBlood group specific plant agglutinins (named lectins by the present author) were discovered in 1945, first mentioned in 1947, and described in detail by Renkonen in 1948 and by Boyd in 1949. Similar agglutinins have since been found in some invertebrates. Thousands of species have now been screened for such activity.

Bifunctional properties of lectins: lectins redefined

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 1988
Abstract Both ‘classical' lectins, originally identified as cell agglutinins, and other carbohydrate-binding proteins that were identified by different means, may contain a second type of binding site that is specific for a non-carbohydrate ligand.

Lectins in the unicellular Tetrahymena. I. Lectin detection with FITC-labeled anti-lectins

Acta Histochemica, 1983
FITC-labeled antibodies prepared in rabbits to bean, pea, lens, datura, and snail lectin indicated by immunological reaction presence in the Tetrahymena of corresponding lectin-like components. The latter localized partly on the surface, partly inside the body of the unicellular.
