FGB1 and WSC3 are in planta-induced beta-glucan-binding fungal lectins with different functions [PDF]
, 2019 In the root endophyte Serendipita indica, several lectin-like members of the expanded multigene family of WSC proteins are transcriptionally induced in planta and are potentially involved in beta-glucan remodeling at the fungal cell wall.

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-

Heterogeneity in glycan composition on the surface of HIV-1 envelope determines virus sensitivity to lectins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Lectins that target N-glycans on the surface of HIV-1 envelope (Env) glycoprotein have the potential for use as antiviral agents. Although progress has been made in deciphering the molecular details of lectin and Env glycan interaction, further studies ...
