Lectins are a group of widely distributed and structurally heterogeneous proteins of nonimmune origin. These proteins have the ability to interact with glycans present on cell surfaces and elicit diverse biological activities. Machaerium acutifolium lectin (MaL) is an N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-binding
Machaerium multiflorum yielded two additional new (+)-trans-hexahydrodibenzopyrans (HHDBP's), machaeriol C (1) and machaeriol D (2), and three new 5,6-seco-HHDBP's, machaeridiol A (3), machaeridiol B (4), and machaeridiol C (5). Their structures and stereochemistries were determined by 1D and 2D NMR
