A solid phase carbohydrate library was synthesized and screened against Bauhinia purpurea lectin. The library, which contains approximately 1300 di- and trisaccharides, was synthesized with chemical encoding on TentaGel resin so that each bead contained a single carbohydrate. Two ligands that bind
This study examined the physicochemical interactions between vesicles formed by phosphatidylcholine (PC) and glycosylated polymeric amphiphile N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminyl-PEG900-docosanate (C22PEG900GlcNAc) conjugated with Bauhinia variegata lectin (BVL). Lectins are proteins or glycoproteins capable
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins widely used in biochemical, immunochemical, and histochemical studies. Bauhinia purpurea lectin (BPA) is a leguminous lectin with an affinity for galactose and lactose. Nine amino acids, DTWPNTEWS, corresponding to the amino acid sequence from aspartic
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
The carbohydrate-binding specificities of lectins purified from Agaricus bisporus (ABA-I), Arachis hypogaea (PNA), Bauhinia purpurea (BPA), Glycine max (SBA), and Vicia villosa (VVA-B4) have been studied by affinity chromatography on columns of the immobilized lectins, and quantitatively analyzed by
Pneumocystis carinii obtained from rat lungs (RLH) and in vitro culture (RTC) were reacted with a panel of 14 fluorescein isothiocyanate conjugated lectins. Percentage fluorescence and fluorescent intensity were determined for both trophic and cyst forms. All RLH and RTC derived organisms bound
Lectins react with a wide range of different carbohydrates (Table 1). Even so-called monospecific anti-H(O) lectins from Lotus tetragonolobus, Ulex europaeus, and Anguilla anguilla react not only with the anti-H determinant but also with several fucosylated carbohydrates. Consequently, the type of
Pneumocystis carinii obtained from infected rat lung homogenates was incubated with fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated lectins, counterstained with the nuclear stain, propidium iodide (PI), and analyzed by dual parameter histograms for lectin-associated green and PI-associated red fluorescence
An immunomorphological and immunochemical study was performed to elucidate the pattern of carbohydrate antigens and their relationships to the cluster differentiation (CD) 68 epitopes on macrophages derived from human bone marrow and milk. Core and backbone antigens recognized by lectins from
Parasite surface glycoconjugates are frequently involved in cellular recognition and colonization of the host. This study reports on the identification of Perkinsus marinus surface carbohydrates by flow cytometric analyses of fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated lectin binding. Lectin-binding
Carbohydrate-derivatized self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are used as a model system to address issues involving cell-surface carbohydrate-protein interactions. Here we examine the influence of carbohydrate surface density on protein-binding avidity. We show that the binding selectivity of Bauhinia
In order to examine the correlation between the amino acid sequence and sugar binding specificity of Bauhinia purpurea lectin (BPA), a galactose and lactose binding lectin, a peptide which interacts with lactose was purified from an Asp-N endoproteinase digest of BPA by means of affinity
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
The nature of the receptor sites for several agglutinins is characterized by hemagglutination inhibition assays. The inhibitory activity of human erythrocytes glycoproteins, from which sialic acid, sialic acid and galactose or alkali-labile oligosaccharides have been removed, is compared to the
Bauhinia purpurea agglutinin (BPA) is a Galbeta1-3GalNAc (T) specific leguminous lectin that has been widely used in multifarious cytochemical and immunological studies of cells and tissues under pathological or malignant conditions. Despite these diverse applications, knowledge of its carbohydrate
