Primary structure characterization of Bothrops jararacussu snake venom lectin
(Kluwer Academic/plenum PublNew YorkEUA, 2002)
An acetylation site in lectin domain modulates the biological activity of polypeptide GalNAc-transferase-2
(De Gruyter, 2012-12)
Polypeptide GalNAc-transferases (ppGalNAc-Ts) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the initiation of mucintype O -glycosylation. All ppGalNAc-T family members contain a common (QXW) 3 motif, which is present in the R-type ...
Cloning, expression, and structural analysis of recombinant BJcuL, a c-type lectin from the Bothrops jararacussu snake venom
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier ScienceSan DiegoEUA, 2004)
Snake venom galactoside-binding lectins: a structural and functional overview
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Abstract
Snake venom galactoside-binding lectins (SVgalLs) comprise a class of toxins capable of recognizing and interacting with terminal galactoside residues of glycans. In the past 35 years, since the ...
Structural basis for ligand recognition in a mushroom lectin: Solvent structure as specificity predictor
(Elsevier, 2011-05)
Lectins are able to recognize specific carbohydrate structures through their carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD). The lectin from the mushroom Agaricus bisporus (ABL) has the remarkable ability of selectively recognizing ...
Molecular characterization of Helja, an extracellular jacalin-related protein from Helianthus annuus: Insights into the relationship of this protein with unconventionally secreted lectins
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2015-07)
Jacalin-related lectins (JRLs) encompass cytosolic, nuclear and vacuolar members displaying the jacalin domain in one or more copies or in combination with unrelated domains. Helianthus annuus jacalin (Helja) is a ...
Functional control of polypeptide GalNAc-transferase 3 through an acetylation site in the C-terminal lectin domain
(De Gruyter, 2017-01)
O-GalNAc glycans are important structures in cellular homeostasis. Their biosynthesis is initiated by members of the polypeptide GalNAc-transferase (ppGalNAc-T) enzyme family. Mutations in ppGalNAc-T3 isoform cause diseases ...
RapA2 is a calcium-binding lectin composed of two highly conserved cadherin-like domains that specifically recognize Rhizobium leguminosarum acidic exopolysaccharides
(American Society For Biochemistry And Molecular Biology, 2013-01)
In silico analyses have revealed a conserved protein domain (CHDL) widely present in bacteria that has significant structural similarity to eukaryotic cadherins. A CHDL domain was shown to be present in RapA, a protein ...
Extrinsic functions of lectin domains in O-N-acetylgalactosamine glycan biosynthesis
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2016-12)
Glycan biosynthesis occurs mainly in Golgi. Molecular organization and functional regulation of this process are not well understood. We evaluated the extrinsic effect of lectin domains (β-trefoil fold) of polypeptide ...
