Planta. 1986 May;168(1):113-8. doi: 10.1007/BF00407017.

Lectins have been isolated from the bark of three members of the family Caprifoliaceae, Sambucus nigra (elder), S. racemosa (red-berried elder) and S. ebulus (dwarf elder), by affinity chromatography on fetuin-agarose, ion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. They are all glycoproteins...

JIMD reports

Shimada T, Tomatsu S, Yasuda E, Mason RW, Mackenzie WG, Shibata Y, Kubaski F, Giugliani R, Yamaguchi S, Suzuki Y, Orii K, Orii T.
PMID: 24850234
JIMD Rep. 2014;16:15-24. doi: 10.1007/8904_2014_311. Epub 2014 May 22.

Chondroitin 6-sulfate (C6S), a glycosaminoglycan (GAG), is distributed mainly in the growth plates, aorta, and cornea; however, the physiological function of C6S is not fully understood. One of the limitations is that no rapid, accurate quantitative method to measure...

Kim HJ, Bae IK, Jeong MH, Park HJ, Jung JS, Kim JE.
PMID: 26788060
Int J Anal Chem. 2015;2015:892486. doi: 10.1155/2015/892486. Epub 2015 Dec 15.

A rapid high performance liquid chromatographic method with evaporative light scattering detection (HPLC-ELSD), using a carbohydrate column, was developed for simultaneous determination of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) in dairy foods. Sample preparation was performed by precipitation using acetonitrile....

A new lectin from tulip (Tulipa) bulbs.

PMID: 24232768
Planta. 1986 Dec;169(4):583-8. doi: 10.1007/BF00392110.

A lectin was isolated from tulip (Tulipa) bulbs by affinity chromatography on fetuin-agarose and partially characterized. The tulip lectin is a tetrameric protein composed of four identical subunits of Mr 28 000, which are not held together by disulphide...

A New Lectin from Meadow Saffron (Colchicum automnale).

Plant physiology

PMID: 16665131
Plant Physiol. 1986 Dec;82(4):1036-9. doi: 10.1104/pp.82.4.1036.

A lectin has been isolated from tubers of the meadow saffron (Colchicum autumnale). It is an octameric protein (M(r) 100,000) composed of 4A- and 4B-subunits of M(r) 15,000 and 10,000, respectively. It is a glycoprotein with 4.4% carbohydrate, the...

Cloning, nucleotide sequence and expression of the beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase gene from Aeromonas sp. no. 10S-24.

Journal of bioscience and bioengineering

Ueda M, Fujita Y, Kawaguchi T, Arai M.
PMID: 16232720
J Biosci Bioeng. 2000;89(2):164-9. doi: 10.1016/s1389-1723(00)88731-9.

The beta-GlcNAcase gene of Aeromonas sp. no. 10S-24 was cloned and sequenced. The gene consisted of 2505 bp encoding 835 amino acid residues. The amino acid sequence of the gene shares sequence homology with beta-GlcNAcases of Vibrio vulnificus (37.4%),...

Biochemistry of growth inhibition by ammonium ions in mammalian cells.

Biotechnology and bioengineering

Ryll T, Valley U, Wagner R.
PMID: 18618684
Biotechnol Bioeng. 1994 Jun 20;44(2):184-93. doi: 10.1002/bit.260440207.

The intracellular pool of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine has been shown to act as a central target during the inhibitory action of ammonium ions in vitro cultivated mammalian cell cultures. This pool has been demonstrated to be elevated at the...

Innate Immunity in Lobsters: Partial Purification and Characterization of a Panulirus cygnus Anti-A Lectin.

ISRN hematology

A lectin detected in haemolymph from the Australian spiny lobster Panulirus cygnus agglutinated human ABO Group A cells to a higher titre than Group O or B. The lectin also agglutinated rat and sheep erythrocytes, with reactivity with rat...

Differential carbohydrate expression in tumorigenic vs nontumorigenic prostate cell-lines.

International journal of oncology

Pacis R, Pilat M, Yamazaki K, Pienta K.
PMID: 21552971
Int J Oncol. 1995 Dec;7(6):1349-54. doi: 10.3892/ijo.7.6.1349.

Death from prostate cancer is most frequently a result of metastatic disease. A key step in the process of metastasis is the attachment of circulatory tumor cells to target organ endothelium. This process is thought to be mediated by...
