Апстракт
A chimeric lectin gene was constructed by using a cDNA clone coding the Bauhinia purpurea lectin (BPA) in which a part of the metal-binding region was replaced by the corresponding region of the mannose-binding Lens culinaris lectin (LCA). The chimeric lectin expressed in Escherichia coli was found to bind alpha mannosyl-bovine serum albumin (BSA) and this binding was inhibited by mannose.
