isolation and purification of lectin from iranian ricinus communis seeds
iranian castor bean lectin was isolated and purified by several column chromatography methods. then, the sugar and amino acid content of the purified lectin was identified. castor bean lectin has some anti tumor and anti leukemia action. thus it may be used commercially for medical and biochemical purposes.
متن کاملIsolation, purification and partial physicochemical characterization of a lectin in Andira pisonis Mart seed
Lectins are ubiquitous proteins in nature, with nonimmune origin, which have at least one non-catalytic domain that binds carbohydrates specifically and reversibly. They can be found in vegetables leaves, stems and seeds. The Dalbergieae tribe has lectins which have specificity for different carbohydrates and also have several biological activities such as induction of rat paw edema, release of...
متن کاملIsolation, Partial Purification and Characterization of Texas Live Oak (Quercus fusiformis) Lectin
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins with agglutination properties. There is a continuous interest in lectins due to their biological properties that can be exploited for medicinal and therapeutic purposes. The objective of this study was to isolate and characterize lectin activity in Texas Live Oak (Quercus fusiformis). More specifically, the study aimed to determine the lectin’s blood gr...
متن کاملPartial Purification of a Potent Immunosuppressive Factor Excreted from Leishmania major Promastigote and Amastigote
Recent scientific evidence indicates that distinct patterns of susceptibility in BALB/c mice to Leishmania major infection are attributable to the differential expansion of distinct CD4+ T-cell subsets and their cytokines production. Production of the Th1 cytokine IFN-g is associated with resistance, whereas production of the Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 are associated with extreme susceptibili...
متن کاملPurification, partial characterization and immobilization of a mannose-specific lectin from seeds of Dioclea lasiophylla mart.
Lectin from the seeds of Dioclea lasiophylla (DlyL) was purified in a single step by affinity chromatography on a Sephadex® G-50 column. DlyL strongly agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes and was inhibited by monosaccharides (D-mannose and α-methyl-D-mannoside) and glycoproteins (ovalbumin and fetuin). Similar to other Diocleinae lectins, DlyL has three chains, α, β and γ, with mass of 25,569 ± 2, ...
