Crystal Structure of the Cysteine-Rich Domain of Mannose Receptor Complexed with a Sulfated Carbohydrate Ligand [PDF]
, 2000 The macrophage and epithelial cell mannose receptor (MR) binds carbohydrates on foreign and host molecules. Two portions of MR recognize carbohydrates: tandemly arranged C-type lectin domains facilitate carbohydrate-dependent macrophage uptake of ...

Status and future directions of anti-metastatic cancer nanomedicines for the inhibition of cathepsin L [PDF]
, 2020 Angiogenesis, tissue invasion and metastasis in the tumour microenvironment are all critical hallmarks of cancer. Upregulation of cathepsin L plays an important role in angiogenesis and metastasis through its ability to degrade the extracellular matrix ...

Glycan analysis of the chicken synaptic plasma membrane glycoproteins - a major synaptic N-glycan carries the LewisX determinant [PDF]
, 2005 The majority of plasma membrane components are glycosylated. It is now widely accepted that this post-translational modification is crucial during the establishment, maintenance and function of the nervous system.

Ligand interactions of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1989 The interaction of the bovine cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor with a variety of phosphorylated ligands has been studied using equilibrium dialysis and immobilized receptor to measure ligand binding. The dissociation constants for mannose 6-phosphate, pentamannose phosphate, bovine testes beta-galactosidase, and a high mannose ...

Arf Regulates Interaction of GGA with Mannose‐6‐Phosphate Receptor [PDF]
Traffic, 2003 The role of ADP‐ribosylation factor (Arf) in Golgi associated, γ‐adaptin homologous, Arf‐interacting protein (GGA)‐mediated membrane traffic was examined. GGA is a clathrin adaptor protein that binds Arf through its GAT domain and the mannose‐6‐phosphate receptor through its VHS domain.
