چکیده

A simple and inexpensive procedure used magnetite and levan to synthesize a composite recovered by a magnetic field. Lectins from Canavalia ensiformis (Con A) and Cratylia mollis (Cramoll 1 and Cramoll 1, 4) did bind specifically to composite. The magnetic property of derivative favored washing out contaminating proteins and recovery of pure lectins with glucose elution. Cramoll 1 was purified by this affinity binding procedure in two steps instead of a previous three-step protocol with ammonium sulfate fractionation, affinity chromatography on Sephadex G-75, and ion exchange chromatography through a CM-cellulose column.

A comparative study on the purification of the Amaranthus leucocarpus syn. hypocondriacus lectin.

Amaranthus leucocarpus lectin is a homodimeric glycoprotein of 35 kDa per sub-unit, which interacts specifically with N-acetyl-galactosamine. In this work, we compared different glycoproteins that contain Galbeta1-3 GalNAcalpha1-3 Ser/Thr or GalNAcalpha1-3 Ser/Thr in their structure as ligands to purify the A. leucocarpus lectin. From the glycoproteins tested, fetuin was the most potent inhibit...

Purification of the lectin from Datura stramonium.

The lectin from Datura stramonium can be inhibited by oligomers of N-acetylglucosamine. This property was exploited to purify the lectin by affinity chromatography on Sepharosefetuin. The purified lectin is a glycoprotein in having subunits of 40 000 and 45 000 mol.wt.

Trypsin purification using magnetic particles of azocasein-iron composite.

This work presents an inexpensive, simple and fast procedure to purify trypsin based on affinity binding with ferromagnetic particles of azocasein composite (mAzo). Crude extract was obtained from intestines of fish Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) homogenized in buffer (01g tissue/ml). This extract was exposed to 100mg of mAzo and washed to remove unbound proteins by magnetic field. Trypsi...

Magnetic Parkia pendula seed gum as matrix for Concanavalin A lectin immobilization and its application in affinity purification.

The present work aimed to magnetize Parkia pendula seeds gum and use it as a matrix for Concanavalin A covalent immobilization. This composite was applied in affinity purification of glycoconjugates. Parkia pendula seeds were hydrated and the gum provenient from the supernatant was precipitated and washed with ethanol and dried. The gum was magnetized in co-precipitation using solutions of Fe+2...

Isolation and Purification of Lection from Momordica balsamina Seeds

Background: Lectins are multivalent proteins of non-immune origin that reversibly and non-enzymatically bind carbohydrates with high specificity for the chemical structure of the glycan array without changing their structure. Lectins have been mostly isolated from plant seeds although recently it had been known to be found in other plant tissues, prokaryotes and higher animals. Objectives: The ...
