Isolation and partial characterization of an N-acetylgalactosamine-specific lectin from winter-aconite (Eranthis hyemalis) root tubers [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1985
A lectin was isolated from root tubers of winter aconite (Eranthis hyemalis) by affinity chromatography on fetuin-agarose, and it was partially characterized with respect to its biochemical, physicochemical and carbohydrate-binding properties. The Eranthis hyemalis lectin is a dimeric protein (Mr 62000) composed of two different subunits of Mr 30000 ...

Characterization of the lectin from the bulbs of Eranthis hyemalis (winter aconite) as an inhibitor of protein synthesis.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
The lectin from Eranthis hyemalis has been previously characterized as consisting of two polypeptide chains covalently linked by disulfide bond(s) (Cammue, B. P., Peeters, B., and Peumans, W. J. (1985) Biochem. J. 227, 949-955). We have further characterized the biochemical properties of the lectin and demonstrated that it possesses the property of ...
