The binding of fucose-containing glycoproteins by hepatic lectins. The binding specificity of the rat liver fucose lectin.
The parameters that affect the interaction of ligands with a fucose-binding lectin from rat liver have been examined. 125I-Fucosyl-bovine serum albumin (Fuc-BSA) containing 50 residues of fucose/molecule was used as the standard ligand. At low initial concentrations of ligand (10 ng/ml) and lectin (140 ng/ml), the reaction reaches equilibrium at pH 7.8, 23 degrees C, within 40 min. The binding ...
متن کاملNorovirus Binding to Ligands Beyond Histo-Blood Group Antigens
Histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) are commonly accepted as the cellular receptors for human norovirus. However, some human noroviruses have been found not to bind any HBGA ligand, suggesting potential additional co-factors. Some ligands have been found to bind noroviruses and have the potential to be additional cellular receptors/attachment factors for human norovirus or inhibitors of the HBGA...
متن کاملStructures and binding specificity of galactose- and mannose-binding lectins from champedak: differences from jackfruit lectins.
Galactose-binding and mannose-binding lectins from the champedak fruit, which is native to South-east Asia, exhibit useful potential clinical applications. The specificity of the two lectins for their respective ligands allows the detection of potential cancer biomarkers and monitoring of the glycosylated state of proteins in human serum and/or urine. To fully understand and expand the use of t...

متن کاملRh and LW blood group antigens
History and nomenclature The Rh system is second only to the ABO system in importance in transfusion medicine because Rh antigens, especially D, are highly immunogenic and cause hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTRs). HDFN was first described by a French midwife in 1609 in a set of twins, one of whom was hydropic and stillborn, whereas the o...
