Carbohydrate binding studies on the lectin from Datura stramonium seeds.
The carbohydrate-binding properties of the Datura stramonium seed lectin were studied by equilibrium dialysis, quantitative precipitation of natural and synthetic glycoproteins, and hapten inhibition of precipitation. The dimeric lectin (Mr = 86,000) possesses two carbohydrate-binding sites for N,N'N",N"'- tetraacetylchitotetritol /mol protein, with an apparent Ka = 8.7 X 10(3) M-1 at 4 degrees...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a lectin from Andira anthelmia seeds
Andira anthelmia seeds, a species belonging to the Leguminosae family, Papilionoideae subfamily, Dalbergieae tribe, have a glucose/mannose specific lectin that agglutinates rabbit erythrocytes treated with trypsin. The Dalbergieae tribe has lectins which have specificity for different carbohydrates including mannose and also have several biological activities such as induction of rat paw edema,...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of a Lectin from VEstaria floribunda Seeds
A lectin from Wisturi~ floribunda seeds which specifically binds to N-acetyl-bgalactosamine was purified to homogeneity as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 68,000 by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. It dissociated into subunits on reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol with concomitant loss of hemagglut...
متن کاملStudies on Seeds
Lipid content has been determined for two types of lipid-rich vesicles isolated from bush bean cotyledon at 24 hr of germination. The larger, nonassociating vesicles are four to six times richer in triglyceride than the smaller vesicles which associate strongly among themselves, as well as with smooth membranes in the cell. The larger vesicles contain about 640 micromoles of phospholipid per gr...
متن کاملSerological studies on an alpha-D-galactosyl-binding lectin isolated from Bandeiraea simplicifolia seeds.
Abstruct. The serological characteristics of a highly purified a-D-galactosyl-binding lectin, isolated from extracts of Buntfeiraen siniplicifoliu seeds, are described. These studies show that the lectin preferentially agglutinates group B red cells and in addition has the capacity to distinguish between group A, and group A, erythrocytes. Since the lectin is not absolutely specific for group B...
