Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) agglutinin (PNA) is extensively used as tumour marker as it strongly recognises the cancer specific T antigen (Galbeta1-->3GalNAc-), but not its sialylated version. However, an additional specificity towards Galbeta1-->4GlcNAc (LacNAc), which is not tumour specific, had

The biosynthesis and posttranslational processing of human metapneumovirus attachment G glycoprotein were investigated. After pulse-labeling, the G protein accumulated as three species with molecular weights of 45,000, 50,000, and 53,000 (45K, 50K, and 53K, respectively). N-Glycosidase digestion

Parietal cells undergo a differentiation process while they move from the isthmus toward the pits and the base region of the gastric gland. The aim of this work was to analyze the rat gastric glands by lectin histochemistry to show the glycans expressed by upper (young) and lower (old) parietal

Interactions between salivary glycoproteins and many oral bacteria have been shown to depend on O-linked glycans on salivary glycoproteins. Basic proline-rich proteins form the largest group of proteins within human parotid saliva. In the present study human parotid salivary glycoproteins were

The expression of six lectins (Arachis hypogaea, B. simplicifolia I, concanavalin A, Dolichus biflorus, Triticum vulgaris, Lotus tetragonolobus) was studied in 24 adenocarcinomas, 24 adenomas, 20 metaplastic polyps, 17 specimens of mucosal prolapse (solitary ulcer syndrome) and 10 of normal mucosa,

When the allergen was oxidized with periodate the size of its precipitate in rocket immunoelectrophoresis (RIE) was reduced. Incubation of the allergen with various glycosidases did not significantly affect its precipitation in RIE. The binding of human IgE and IgG to allergen bound to

Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV), is an autosomal recessive disorder with early adult onset, displays distal dominant muscular involvement and is characterized by the presence of numerous rimmed vacuoles in the affected muscle fibers. The pathophysiology of DMRV has not been clarified

It is unclear how endoparasites passively evade their host's immune reactions in most parasite-host systems. Hemomucin from the parasitoid wasp Macrocentrus cingulum (McHEM) is a 97-kDa transmembrane protein containing 51 potential O-glycosylation sites that can be specifically recognized by Arachis

Glycoconjugates play a crucial role in the host-parasite relationships of helminthic infections, including angiostrongyliasis. It has previously been shown that the antigenicity of proteins from female Angiostrongylus cantonensis worms may depend on their associated glycan moieties. Here, an
