Can Plant Lectins Help to Elucidate Insect Lectin-Mediated Immune Response?
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that recognize and selectively bind to specific sugar structures. This group of proteins is widespread in plants, animals, and microorganisms, and exerts a broad range of functions.

Russulaceae FAMILY MUSHROOMS LECTINS: FUNCTION, PURIFICATION, STRUCTURAL FEATURES AND POSSIBILITIES OF PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS [PDF]
The purpose of this paper was to analise the results of own author’s research and literature date of other authors that concerned lectins of Russulaceae family mushrooms, which, despite their widespread, are still poorly investigated. Most studies merely

Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Penicillium sp. lectins [PDF]
Lectins are a diverse group of proteins of non-immune origin that interact specifically with glycans. Owing to their specificity, they can mediate various cellular and molecular recognition processes.

Characterization and antimicrobial activity of lectins purified from three Egyptian leguminous seeds
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that play vital roles in many biological processes. In this study, lectins from three Egyptian cultivars (fava bean, lentil, and pea) were isolated by precipitation with different concentrations of ammonium ...

Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]
Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

AbstractLectin microarray is a new technology that utilizes a panel of lectins immobilized on well‐defined substrate for high‐throughout analysis of glycans and glycoproteins. In this article, we have reviewed the fabrication and detection schemes in lectin microarray and discussed its novel applications in glycomics. We have also demonstrated a lectin

Detection of inflammation- and neoplasia-associated alterations in human large intestine using plant/invertebrate lectins, galectin-1 and neoglycoproteins [PDF]
Commonly, plant and invertebrate lectins are accepted glycohistochemical tools for the analysis of normal and altered structures of glycans in histology and pathology.
