Banana lectin (Banlec) is a dimeric plant lectin from the jacalin-related lectin family. Banlec
belongs to a subgroup of this family that binds to glucose/mannose, but is unique in …

Jacalin, a tetrameric lectin, is one of the two lectins present in jackfruit (Artocarpus
integrifolia) seeds. Its crystal structure revealed, for the first time, the occurrence of the β …

The crystal structure of a complex of methyl-α-D-mannoside with banana lectin from Musa
paradisiaca reveals two primary binding sites in the lectin, unlike in other lectins with β-prism …

Lectins belonging to the jacalin‐related lectin family are distributed widely in the plant
kingdom. Recently, two mannose‐specific lectins having tandem repeat‐type structures …

The lectin KM+ from Artocarpus integrifolia, also known as artocarpin, induces neutrophil
migration by haptotaxis. The interactions of KM+ with both the extracellular matrix (ECM) and …

The crystal structures of the apo and mannose-bound Parkia platycephala seed lectin
represent the first structure of a Mimosoideae lectin and a novel circular arrangement of β …

KM+, a mannose-binding lectin present in the seeds of Artocarpus integrifolia, has
interesting biological properties and potential pharmaceutical use [A. Panunto-Castelo, MA …

Parkia platycephala belongs to the most primitive group of Leguminosae plants. Its seed
lectin is made up of three homologous β-prism repeats and exhibits binding specificity for …
