Lectin and Anti-Carbohydrate Antibody Assays Using Chemically Modified Ligands
Microtiter plate assays and ‘lectinoblotting’ with the use of biotinylated lectins are tive and easy to perform methods that can be combined with simple procedures of mical modifications of glycoproteins immob...

Chapter
Expression of Binding Properties of Gal/GalNAc Reactive Lectins by Mammalian Glycotopes
Expression of the binding properties of Gal/GalNAc specific lectins, based on the affinity of decreasing order of mammalian glycotopes (determinants) rather than saccharide inhibition pattern, is probably one ...

Chapter
A Guide to the Carbohydrate Specificities of Applied Lectins-2
The lectins, that can be used as tools to study glycobiological systems are defined as applied lectins (1–14).They are easily obtained, stable and have their own binding specificity extending beyond the monosacch...

Binding Properties and Applications of Aplysia Gonad Lectin
Adult Aplysia gonad contains high levels of a galactophilic lectin (MW around 65 kDa; composed of 2 subunits of apparent single species). It binds galactose and various a/ß-galactosides (but not N-acetylgalactosa...

Structure, biosynthesis, and function of salivary mucins
The glandular secretions of the oral cavity lining the underlying buccal mucosa are highly specialized fluids which provide lubrication, prevent mechanical damage, protect efficiently against viral and bacteri...

Differential binding characteristics and applications of dGalβ1→3dGalNAc specific lectins
The binding properties of Arachis hypogaea (PNA), Bauhinia vurpurea alba (BPL), Maclura pomifera (MPL) and Sophora japonica (SJL) lectins were studied by quantitative precipitin and precipitin inhibition assays, ...

Current concepts of the structure and nature of mammalian salivary mucous glycoproteins
The visco-elastic properties of salivary secretions are due to high molecular-weight glyco-proteins, known as mucins. Mucins are composed of numerous oligosaccharide side-chains O-glycosidically linked through 2-...
