Analysis Note
Where reported, agglutination activity is expressed in µg/ml and is determined from serial dilutions in phosphate buffered saline, pH 6.8, of a 1 mg/ml solution. This activity is the lowest concentration to agglutinate a 2% suspension of human blood group A erythrocytes after 1 hour incubation at 25 °C.
Application
Lectin from Helix pomatia has been used to study its binding activities in Gyrodactylus derjavini parasitizing fins of Oncorhynchus mykiss.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Lectin is useful in glycoconjugate characterizing, imaging and targeting. Lectin participates in host recognition and tissue adhesion. Lectins shows resistance to proteolytic degradationin vivo.
HPA has anti-A human blood group specificity and has an affinity for terminal N-acetyl-α-D-galactosaminyl residues. Conjugates are prepared from affinity purified lectin.
General description
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins, omnipresent, found in fungi, plants and animals. These oligomeric proteins are characterized by the presence of a carbohydrate recognition domain.
