Objective: Newborns are highly susceptible to bacterial sepsis. Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), M-, L- and H-ficolin recognize microorganisms and activate the complement system via MBL-associated ...

The research team created a series of GnT-IVa and GnT-IVb mutants that impaired only the lectin-binding activity of both glycosylation enzymes to determine whether or not lectin binding was ...

Probing the bacterial glycome using chemical & physical methods Lectins (carbohydrate-binding proteins) have been used as tools for glycoprofiling, most recently in microarray formats. This is a ...

The researchers targeted the lectin (carbohydrate-binding protein) DC-SIGN because of its ability to serve as an activator of ...
