Subunit structure of Vicia graminea anti-(blood-group N) lectin.
The subunit of the Vicia graminea lectin with blood-group-N specificity was examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and gel filtration in 6M-guanidinium chloride, and its molecular weights was found to be 25 000. The unique N-terminal sequence fof the first nine residues of the lectin confirmed that Vicia lectin consists of four identical chains non-covalently lin...
متن کاملVicia cretica: a powerful lectin for T- and Th- but not TK- or other polyagglutinable erythrocytes.
Extracts of the seeds of Vicia cretica (NO Leguminosae) strongly agglutinate T- Th- but not Tk- or other polyagglutinable red cells. The V. cretica lectin is therefore a very useful laboratory reagent in the elucidation of erythrocyte polyagglutination due to T-like erythrocyte cryptantigens.

One of the important parts of innate immunity is complement system that occurs in three different ways; the classic, the alternative and the lectin pathway. The four pattern recognition molecules that have been identified till now are Mannose binding lectin (MBL), a component of lectin pathway, and three ficolins (ficolin1,-2 and -3) which compound to the carbohydrates of the cell surface. MBL ...
متن کاملThe B4 lectin from Vicia villosa seeds interacts with N-acetylgalactosamine residues alpha-linked to serine or threonine residues in cell surface glycoproteins.
We have examined the carbohydrate binding specificity of the B4 lectin from Vicia villosa seeds. The B4 lectin agglutinates Tn-exposed erythrocytes specifically and binds to these erythrocytes (1.4 X 10(6) sites/cell) with an association constant of 4.2 X 10(7) M-1. The concentrations of saccharides and glycopeptides of defined structure which cause 50% inhibition of B4 lectin binding to Tn-exp...
متن کاملIdentification of Novel O-Linked Glycosylated Toxoplasma Proteins by Vicia villosa Lectin Chromatography
Toxoplasma gondii maintains its intracellular life cycle using an extraordinary arsenal of parasite-specific organelles including the inner membrane complex (IMC), rhoptries, micronemes, and dense granules. While these unique compartments play critical roles in pathogenesis, many of their protein constituents have yet to be identified. We exploited the Vicia villosa lectin (VVL) to identify new...
