Lectins, glycine max (SBA) and Vicia villosa (VVA), which identify terminal N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc), stained the motor neurons of a patient with subacute motor neuronopathy associated with neoplastic angioendotheliosis. In normal controls and in patients with other neurological disorders
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) mutants lacking the ability to produce the lectin normally found in soybean seeds (SBL) are designated Le-. A protein of higher molecular weight that cross-reacts with antibodies raised to SBL was found at nearly equivalent levels in roots, hypocotyls, and leaves, and
The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of thirteen lectins, most being specific for D-galactose or N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, were compared. Two groupings are proposed on the basis of the CD in the near-ultraviolet region. Group one comprises the lectins from Arachis hypogaea, Glycine max, Phaseolus
Cell surface carbohydrates play an important role in several biological, immunological, and neoplastic phenomena including development, growth regulation, cellular locomotion, receptor activation, and tumour metastasis. Fluorescein labelled lectins which bind to specific carbohydrate residues in
Native porcine erythrocytes do not initiate blood coagulation, though even the weak association (Kd = 4,25 +/- 9,35 microM) of prothrombin with their surface which is limited to the projection of two phospholipid polar head groups onto the external cell membrane, exerts a slight but authentic
The major lectin in seeds of a soybean cultivar (Glycine max cv D68-127) has been purified to apparent homogeneity by hydroxyapatite and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. In the latter, the behavior of the lectin was similar to that of the minor isolectins previously described in other soybean
Seven plant lectins, Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin (GSA, isolectin A4), Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA), soybean (Glycine max) agglutinin (SBA), Salvia sclarea agglutinin (SSA), Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA, isolectin B4) and Wistaria floribunda agglutinin
Quantitative precipitation studies have shown that the Man/Glc-specific lectin concanavalin A (ConA) forms homogeneous (homopolymeric) cross-linked precipitates with individual asparagine-linked oligomannose and bisected hybrid-type glycopeptides in the presence of binary mixtures of the
The lectin of Erythrina corallodendron (Caesalpiniaceae) seeds was purified by heating, ammonium sulfate fractionation, and affinity chromatography on acid-treated Sepharose. The purified lectin is similar to the soybean lectin in being a glycoprotein of molecular weight around 110 000 - 120 000 and
Availability of gram quantities of purified soybean lectin (SBL) to scientists will foster discovery of novel biomedical applications of the lectin and provide the opportunity to investigate the antinutritional effects of SBL in soybean-consuming food animals and poultry. Therefore, a
The pharmacological and biochemical characteristics of soluble alpha 2-adrenoceptors were investigated to determine whether differences observed in membranes were maintained in solution and to probe the nature of any such differences. alpha 2-Adrenoceptors were solubilized from purified plasma
Hyphomonas strain MHS-3 (MHS-3) is a marine procaryote with a biphasic life cycle and which has prosthecate stages that adhere to submerged substrata. We found that adherent forms produced an exopolysaccharide (EPS) capsule that bound Glycine max lectin, Arachis hypogaea lectin, and Bauhinia
OBJECTIVE
Histiotrophe is now recognized as being an important feature of early human pregnancy, providing nutrients and growth factors to the developing embryo. Our aim was to examine the glycan composition of histiotrophe from first trimester decidua and to compare it with secretions present in
Conventional histochemical characterization of the mucus secretory apparatus is often difficult to reconcile with the biochemical analysis of respiratory secretions. This study was designed to examine the secretory glycoconjugates in airways using lectins with biochemically defined affinities for
In the present study carbohydrate residues in taste buds (TBs) and adjacent epithelial formations of a teleostean fish, a frog and the rabbit were detected by means of lectin histochemistry. Biotinylated lectins from Pisum sativum (PSA), Arachis hypogaea (PNA), Dolichos biflorus (DBA), Triticum
