Structural and biochemical characterization of a new type of lectin isolated from carp eggs. [PDF]

, 2003
A previously unidentified glycoprotein present in the eggs of the carp (Cyprinus carpio) was isolated and structurally characterized. The protein binds to a Sepharose 4B matrix and can be eluted with 0.4 M N-acetylglucosamine. The protein has an apparent

Microbiome Single Cell Atlases Generated with a Commercial Instrument

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single cell sequencing is valuable for dissecting complex systems and uncovering unique features in individual cell types. However, tools for single cell microbial analysis are limited. Easily Accessible Single microbe sequencing (EASi‐seq), which adapts a commercially available single cell platform for efficient sequencing of single microbial genomes ...

Overview of the Structure–Function Relationships of Mannose-Specific Lectins from Plants, Algae and Fungi

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
To date, a number of mannose-binding lectins have been isolated and characterized from plants and fungi. These proteins are composed of different structural scaffold structures which harbor a single or multiple carbohydrate-binding sites involved in the ...

Differences in the mannose oligomer specificities of the closely related lectins from Galanthus nivalis and Zea mays strongly determine their eventual anti-HIV activity

Retrovirology, 2011
Background In a recent report, the carbohydrate-binding specificities of the plant lectins Galanthus nivalis (GNA) and the closely related lectin from Zea mays (GNAmaize) were determined by glycan array analysis and indicated that GNAmaize recognizes ...

Plumieribetin, a Fish Lectin Homologous to Mannose-binding B-type Lectins, Inhibits the Collagen-binding α1β1 Integrin*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Recently, a few fish proteins have been described with a high homology to B-type lectins of monocotyledonous plants. Because of their mannose binding activity, they have been ascribed a role in innate immunity.

New challenges in studying nutrition-disease interactions in the developing world. [PDF]

, 2008
Latest estimates indicate that nutritional deficiencies account for 3 million child deaths each year in less-developed countries. Targeted nutritional interventions could therefore save millions of lives.

Exploring the Impact of Phenanthroline‐Based Glycoconjugated Ru(II) Polypyridyl Photosensitizers on Metastasis‐Related Processes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A novel family of water‐soluble, nontoxic, and phosphorescent N‐glycosylated Ru(II) phenanthroline‐based complexes are reported. They exhibit photoselectivity indexes ranging from 10 to 44 in PC‐3 cells, while impacting cell migration and resistance to detachment after irradiation with blue light.
