Many plants contain carbohydrate-binding proteins that are commonly designated as lectins,
agglutinins, or hemagglutinins. Due to the obvious differences in molecular structure …

Glycosylation constitutes one of the most common, ubiquitous and complex forms of post-
translational modification. It commences with the synthesis of the protein and plays a …

This is the second edition of our little red book Lectins published in 1989. In the intervening
years well over 10,000 articles have appeared with lectins as the main subject, and more …

Lectins—carbohydrate-binding proteins involved in a variety of recognition processes—
exhibit considerable structural diversity. Three new lectin folds and further elaborations of …

Plant lectins, a natural source of glycans with a therapeutic potential may lead to the
discovery of new targeted therapies. Glycans extracted from plant lectins are known to act as …

The seed lectin (DBL) from the leguminous plant Dolichos biflorus has a unique specificity
among the members of the legume lectin family because of its high preference for GalNAc …

Legume lectins family of proteins, despite having the same 'jelly roll'tertiary structural fold at
monomeric level, exhibit considerable variation in their quaternary structure arising out of …

A mannose-specific agglutinin, isolated from garlic bulbs, has been crystallized in the
presence of a large excess of α-d-mannose, in space group C 2 and cell dimensions, a …

Several novel structures of legume lectins have led to a thorough understanding of
monosaccharide and oligosaccharide specificity, to the determination of novel and …
