BUL: a novel lectin from Bauhinia ungulataL. seeds with fungistatic and antiproliferative activities
A new galactose-binding lectin, termed BUL, has been purified from seeds of Bauhinia ungulata (Caesalpinoideae) by precipitation with solid ammonium sulfate followed by agarose-lactose affinity chromatography. B. ungulata lectin strongly agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes, both native and treated with proteolytic enzymes, and was inhibited by D-galactose and D-galactosederived sugars, especially ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a novel lectin with antifungal and antiproliferative activities from Sophora alopecuroides seeds.
Sophora alopecuroides lectin (SAL), a novel lectin from the seeds of Sophora alopecuroides, was purified by ion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl (DEAE)- and carboxymethyl (CM)-Sepharose columns, followed by gel filtration on a Sephadex 75 10/300 GL column. SAL was found to be a monomer of 39916.3 Da, as determined by tricine-sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis...
متن کاملAcetylcholinesterase inhibition starting from extracts of Bauhinia variegata L., Bauhinia var. candida (Aiton) Buch.-Ham., and Bauhinia ungulata L.
INTRODUCTION A treatment to the Alzheimer's disease consists inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase, which is responsible for the acetylcholine control in the synapses. METHODS We have investigated the potential of inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase produced by hexane extracts of leaves, branches, and flowers from three Bauhinia specimens, which is based on the technique of thin layer chr...
متن کاملNovel galactonic acid-binding hexameric lectin from Hibiscus mutabilis seeds with antiproliferative and potent HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitory activities.
A hexameric 150-kDa lectin was isolated from dried Hibiscus mutabilis seeds using a chromatographic protocol that involved ion exchange chromatography on SP-Sepharose, and gel filtration on Superdex 75 and Superdex 200. The lectin was not adsorbed on SP-Sepharose and was eluted from the Superdex 75 column in the void volume. It was eluted in the first peak from Superdex 200. It was strongly ads...
متن کاملPurification of an Antiproliferative Lectin from Erophaca Baetica (Leguminosae) Seeds
A lectin has been purified from the seeds of Erophaca baetica, an endemic legume of the Mediterranean Region. The protein has been purified from an albumin extract by gel filtration chromatography, after realization that affinity chromatography using Sephadex G-50 did not retain any proteins. Characterization of this protein shows that it is a 60 kDa homodimeric glycoprotein with 235 mg sugars ...
