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 determine the carbohydrate-binding site of Bauhinia purpurea lectin (BPA), a D-galactose- and lactose-binding lectin, a peptide which interacts with lactose was purified from endoproteinase Asp-N digests of BPA by chromatography on a lactose-Sepharose column. It consists of nine amino acids and
Seeds of Bauhinia forficata species were submited to biochemical characterization concerning fatty acids analysis, protein fractionization, and hemaglutinanting activity. The seed elementary analysis showed a high protein and lipids contents with 21.24% and 19.45% respectively. The more abundant
This study describes new lectin-decorated or protein-loaded nanoparticles with a hydrophobic poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) core and a hydrophilic dextran (Dex) corona. In this view, a family of block Dex-PCLn copolymers was first synthesized, consisting of a Dex backbone to which n preformed PCL
Bauhinia forficata, commonly known as "paw-of-cow", is widely used in Brazil folk medicine for the treatment of Diabetes mellitus. The purposes of present study were to determine the repercussions of diabetes on the defense system against oxidative stress in pregnant female rats and to characterize
Among various metabolic disorders, diabetes mellitus is one of the most common disorder. Present study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of aqueous extract of Bauhinia variegata leaves (AE) in animal models of type I and type II diabetes. Type I diabetes was induced by streptozotocin at the
In intact microsomes, quercetin 3-O-alpha-(2''-galloyl)rhamnoside (QGR) inhibits glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) in a concentration-dependent manner. QGR increased the G-6-Pase K(m) for glucose-6-phosphate without change in the V(max). The flavonol did not change the kinetic parameters of disrupted
Various caseinoglycopeptide derivatives prepared from mammalian milk were evaluated as inhibitors of hemagglutinations mediated by Actinomyces viscosus Ny1, Streptococcus sanguis OMZ9, and, for comparative purposes, plant lectins from Arachis hypogaea and Bauhinia purpurea. It was found that
