Overexpression of Nictaba-Like Lectin Genes from Glycine max Confers Tolerance towards Pseudomonas syringae Infection, Aphid Infestation and Salt Stress in Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Plants have evolved a sophisticated immune system that allows them to recognize invading pathogens by specialized receptors. Carbohydrate-binding proteins or lectins are part of this immune system and especially the lectins that reside in the ...

CardiLect: A combined cross‐species lectin histochemistry protocol for the automated analysis of cardiac remodelling

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1398-1415, April 2025.
Abstract Background Cardiac remodelling, a crucial aspect of heart failure, is commonly investigated in preclinical models by quantifying cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area (CSA) and microvascular density (MVD) via histological methods, such as immunohistochemistry.

Mango Seed Valorization: Sustainable Source of Nutrients, Bioactives, and Value‐Added Applications

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Highlighting mango seed as a valuable yet overlooked by‐product, promoting its utilization and reducing agroindustrial waste. ABSTRACT Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most widely cultivated tropical fruits, generating large quantities of by‐products during processing, with mango seed representing 20%–25% of the whole fruit weight ...

Bioavailability through lactic fermentation in millet for combating hidden hunger

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Millets are nutrient‐rich grains with considerable potential to combat hidden hunger, but the presence of anti‐nutritional factors, can restrict mineral bioavailability. Processing strategies including soaking, germination, cooking, and lactic acid fermentation can reduce the anti‐nutritional factors.

Controlling sap-sucking insect pests with recombinant endophytes expressing plant lectin [PDF]

, 2010
We developed a novel pest management strategy, which uses endophytes to express anti-pest plant lectins. Fungal endophyte of Chaetomium globosum YY-11 with anti-fungi activities was isolated from rape seedlings, and bacterial endophytes of SJ-10 ...

Identification and elimination of false-positives in an ELISA-based system for qualitative assessment of glycoconjugate binding using a selection of plant lectins.

, 2007
Systematic optimization of a lectin-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) procedure using a panel of 21 biotinylated plant lectins and a glycoprotein with defined glycosylation (i) identified blocking as a limiting step in solid phase sugar ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...
