The nomenclature, structure, mode of action and applications of lectins are reviewed. This
group of proteinaceous macromolecules has the property of interacting with carbohydrates …

To date, a number of mannose-binding lectins have been isolated and characterized from
plants and fungi. These proteins are composed of different structural scaffold structures …

We have previously shown that the neural adhesion molecules L1 and NCAM interact with
each other to form a complex which binds more avidly to L1 than L1 to L1 alone (Kadmon …

Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins of nonimmune origin, which have been widely
used in the fields of cell biology, biochemistry and histochemistry to isolate and/or to …

The complete amino acid sequence of the major a subunit of the lectin from seeds of Dioclea
grandiflora was determined. The sequence was deduced from analysis of peptides derived …

Lectins are non-immunological carbohydrate-binding proteins classified on the basis of their
structure, origin, and sugar specificity. The binding specificity of such proteins with the …

Abstract Vicieae tribe, Leguminosae family (Fabaceae), has been extensively studied. In
particular, the study of lectins. The purification, physicochemical and structural …

The lectins from the seeds of Dolichos lablab var. lignosus (field bean) and Dolichos lablab
var. typicus (lablab bean) have been isolated in a homogeneous form by affinity …

Lectins are a diverse group of proteins and glycoproteins that exhibit specific binding for
certain carbohydrates. Proteins with this property have been described in a wide variety of …
