1. A lectin was isolated from an extract of Branchiostoma lanceolatum by affinity chromatography using an asialo-A-peptone-cellulose column. 2 The lectin is a glycoprotein with a carbohydrate content of 2.7%. The mol. wt is 392,000 +/- 28,000. Two subunits of identical size (183,000 +/- 3000) are linked by non-covalent bonds. 3. The lectin agglutinates a variety of erythrocytes including human A, B, O red blood cells as well as human lymphocytes. 4. Hemagglutination activity is inhibited best by N,N',N"-triacetylchitotriose, followed by N,N'-diacetylchitobiose, which is half as inhibitory. 5. Lectin activity is constant between pH 5 and 10. Divalent cations are not required for binding reactions. Activity is totally destroyed by heating to 60 degrees C for 30 min. 6. The lectin is precipitated from the extract by 30-40% ammonium sulfate saturation.  相似文献

Fish eggs are known as a rich source of lectins. In this study we purified and characterized a lectin from unfertilized Katsuwonus pelamis hard roe. K. pelamis lectin (KPL) was purified by separation into two fractions above and below the molecular weight of 10kDa using ultramembrane, gel filtration on a Sephadex G-100, and affinity chromatography on an asialofetuin-Sepharose 4B. KPL is a glycoprotein of 140kDa, composed mainly of aspartic acid, glycine, phenylalanine, glutamic acid, threonine and serine residues. Analysis of the carbohydrate composition by gas-liquid chromatography indicated that carbohydrates constituted 14% of the total weight and this 14% is comprised of mannose, galactose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, fucose, arabinose and sialic acid. The lectin is comprised of four subunits. These subunits have a molecular mass corresponding to 35kDa. KPL specifically agglutinated human blood type A erythrocytes and, in a hemagglutination inhibitory test, the potent inhibitors were D-galactose, lactose, lactosamine, asialofetuin, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, O-serinyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranoside and O-serinyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-galactopyranoside (O-serinyl-beta-D-GalNAc). The first 10 residues of the N-terminal region were determined as PVELCDAKCT. Furthermore it was determined that the hemagglutinating activity of KPL was dependent on divalent metal cations and that the optimum activity of KPL was exhibited at 40 degrees C and pH 6.0-8.5 in the presence of Ca2+.  相似文献

A lectin was isolated and purified from the culture filtrate of the plant pathogenic fungus Macrophomina phaseolina by a combination of ammonium sulfate precipitation, affinity chromatography on fetuin-Sepharose 4B and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-A 50. The lectin designated MPL was homogeneous by PAGE and HPLC and a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of approximately 34 kDa as demonstrated by SDS-PAGE. It is a glycoprotein and agglutinated human erythrocytes regardless of the human blood type. Neuraminidase treatment of erythrocytes reduced the agglutination activity of the lectin. It is thermally stable and exhibits maximum activity between pH 6 and 7.2. Its carbohydrate binding specificity was investigated both by hapten inhibition of hemagglutination and by enzyme-conjugated lectin inhibition assay. Although, M. phaseolina lectin bound sialic acid, it exhibited binding affinity towards neuraminyl oligosaccharides of N-linked glycoproteins, alpha-Neu5Ac-(2-->3)-beta-Gal-(1-->4)-GlcNAc being maximum.  相似文献

Lectin activity has been detected in the thigh muscle extracts of Rana tigerina, which was found to agglutinate both trypsinized and untrypsinized rabbit erythrocytes. The lectin has been purified to homogeneity by MEPBS (0.01 M phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.2) with 4 mM beta-mercaptoethanol) buffer extraction of the tissue and affinity chromatography on acid-treated Sepharose 6B. The molecular weight (Mr) of the purified lectin was determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration on Sephadex G-75, which gave values of 15,500 +/- 1000 and 32,000 +/- 1000, respectively, suggesting that the lectin is a dimer. Amino acid composition data of the lectin has revealed that it contains a high proportion of glycine and alanine, and low amounts of sulphur-containing amino acids. Hapten-inhibition study of this lectin has shown that it is galactose-specific. Hemagglutination activity of the lectin can also be inhibited by beta-galactoside containing oligosaccharides.  相似文献

1. An anti-N lectin was extracted from Vicia unijuga leaves with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Purification of the lectin was achieved, after pretreatment of the PBS extract by ammonium sulfate fractionation and absorption with human M erythrocytes, by using a combination of conventional chromatographic techniques with asialoglycophorin AN-Sepharose CL-4B affinity chromatography. Purification steps were followed by increase of specific activity. 2. Homogeneity of the purified lectin was demonstrated by HPLC and SDS-PAGE. The purified lectin was a glycoprotein with 11.4% carbohydrate and relatively high percentages of serine, threonine and aspartic acid residues and had a Mw of 120,000 Da. 3. This lectin agglutinated human N and MN erythrocytes, but did not agglutinate M erythrocytes. Hemagglutination of the lectin was inhibited by glycophorin AN and N-active sialoglycopeptide released from human N erythrocytes by treatment with Pronase or trypsin. However, it was not inhibited by any of mono- and di-saccharides, ABH-active glycoproteins, glycophorin AM and M-active sialoglycopeptide liberated from human M erythrocytes by treatment with Pronase or trypsin.  相似文献

A lectin from the seeds of Crotalaria pallida (CPL), with an apparent molecular mass of 30 kDa, determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, showed human type A and B erythrocytes agglutination activity, which is inhibited by raffinose and galactose. The lectin requirement for divalent cation was demonstrated with EDTA/EGTA blocking hemagglutination activity. Although the N-terminal amino acid sequence of CPL is identical to another lectin from Crotalaria striata, which is taxonomically synonymous to Crotalaria pallida, these lectins differ in amino acid composition and hemagglutination properties.  相似文献

A lectin, Craniella australiensis (CAL), was isolated from sponge C. australiensis by ion-exchange on DEAE-Sephacel and purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and HPLC on DEAE-5PW. The purified lectin was a trimeric protein as revealed by SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF analysis. SDS-PAGE showed that the CAL protein had a molecular mass of 54 kDa, and consisted of three 18 kDa subunits. Gel filtration of purified lectin on Sephadex G-200 indicates that it exists as a 54 kDa protein in its native state. The amino acid composition was rich in Thr and Glx. CAL was found to agglutinate native and trypsinized human A, B erythrocytes, and agglutinate native erythrocytes of mouse, sheep, rabbit and chicken, and trypsinized erythrocytes of sheep and rabbit. The hemagglutination activity was inhibited by glycoproteins such as PSM and asialo-PSM, but not by any of the monosaccharides tested. The activity was stable between 20 and 70 degrees C. Significant CAL activity was observed between pH 5 and 8. The lectin reaction is independent of the presence of divalent cations Ca2+ and Mg2+. The sequence of N-terminal residues of CAL was determined as TSSCQSIVVE. The lectin showed a potent mitogenic response towards BALB/c splenocytes.  相似文献

Rice lectin (Oryza sativa, var. Balilla 28) was purified from defatted embryos by aqueous acid extraction at pH 1.3 followed by ammonium sulfate precipitation between 2 and 4 M, affinity chromatography on agarose-p-aminophenyl-beta-D-N-acetylglucosamine, and gel filtration on AcA 54. The homogeneity of the lectin was checked by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, gel filtration, and immunodiffusion. The amino acid analysis revealed a high half-cystine content (9%) and a low aromatic and hydrophobic amino acid content. The lectin contained neither neutral carbohydrates nor amino sugars. The isoelectric point was estimated to be 8.1. The molecular weight of rice lectin was estimated to be 38,000. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions showed two polypeptides with Mr 19,000 and 15,000. The circular dichroism spectrum of rice lectin in far ultraviolet was characterized by a positive maximum at 228 nm and a negative band at 203 nm suggesting the presence of a beta-pleated sheet and the absence of alpha-helix. Rice lectin had no human blood group specificity and agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes more efficiently than erythrocytes from other animal species. Furthermore, agglutination was enhanced by trypsin treatment of erythrocytes. The erythroagglutinating activity was very high since the minimal concentration needed to agglutinate erythrocytes was 0.05 micrograms/ml. Although [methyl-3H]thymidine incorporation was stimulated in human lymphocytes, rice lectin could not be considered as a mitogenic lectin since it stimulated neither blast transformation nor lymphocyte proliferation. The saccharide specificity of rice lectin was related to N-acetylglucosamine and its oligomers: N,N',N"-triacetylchitotriose was the most powerful inhibitor. Furthermore, the N-acetylneuraminic acid was not a specific rice determinant. Finally, the double immunodiffusion method revealed a cross-reactivity between rice lectin and wheat germ agglutinin, indicating that these lectins were closely antigenically related. The analogies and differences between biological and immunological properties of rice lectin and wheat germ agglutinin are discussed and the possibility of their evolution from a common ancestor is put forward.  相似文献

The novel mannose-binding rice lectin (MRL) purified by Sephadex G-50 or maltamyl Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography was not homogeneous, but the components were separated clearly by two dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1st; isoelectric focusing with Immobiline, 2nd; SDS-PAGE). The major spots were located at pI 4.85 and 4.74, and minor spots at pI 4.66, 4.56, and 4.44; all spots were distributed at about MW 45,000. Other faint spots were sometimes detected just below the major spots. In the western blot analysis, all the spots reacted with the monoclonal antibodies specific to MRL, which bound to MRL and inhibited the lectin activity to agglutinate rabbit erythrocytes. The proteins of the spots at pI 4.85, 4.77, 4.66, and 4.56 had lectin activity. The major proteins at pI 4.85 and 4.77 also had the common amino acid sequence at N-terminus, TLVKIGPWGGNGGSAQDISV, which is almost identical to salt and drought stress-inducible salT gene products in rice plants. High homology was also conserved in both the cDNA and the genomic clones encoding the MRL component at pI 4.85, which were selected with MRL-specific antibodies and an oligonucleotide designed from the partial amino acid sequence. All results suggest that MRL is composed of several isolectins, if not, related proteins having a common epitope and may belong to a family of stress-inducible proteins.  相似文献

A lectin from fruiting bodies of Lactarius rufus (Scop.: Fr.)Fr. has been purified by affinity chromatography on copolymer of polyvinyl alcohol with a blood group B specific substance. The lectin gives a single band at disk-electrophoresis in acidic (pH 4.3) and alkaline (pH 8.6) buffer systems. Under electrophoresis in 10-20% SDS-PAGE, the lectin consists of identical subunits with molecular weight 17 +/- 1 kDa. Molecular weight of the lectin is 98 kDa according to gel-chromatography on Tojopearl HW-55. It is supposed that the lectin contains six subunits. The lectin is quite enough stable in pH 4.0-10.0, its activity does not depend upon bivalent metal ions. When heating the lectin solution to 65 degrees C it lost more than 85% of its activity. The lectin agglutinates human etrythrocytes without any marked group specificity, it agglutinates 2-4 times worse rabbit erythrocytes, very weakly crucian erythrocytes and does not agglutinate sheep erythrocytes. Mono- and disaccharides are not inhibitors of the lectin activity, while alpha-phenyl-N-acethyl-D-glucosaminopyranosid (0.08 mM) and 4-nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucosamin are the best inhibitors of its activity. Among glycoproteins the best inhibitors of the lectin activity are: group-specific substances from human blood erythrocytes, asialosubmaxillary bovine mucin, human and bovine thyroglobulin and more weak inhibitors are fetuin, transferrin and human Ig G.  相似文献

Two glycopeptide fractions were obtained from pseudomyxomatous mucins secreted by an ovarian cystadenocarcinoma from a female having blood-group B, and by an appendix tumor from a male having blood-group O. The carbohydrate and amino acid content of these fractions suggests the presence of numerous carbohydrate side-chains linked through O-glycosyl bonds to a peptide core rich in threonine and proline. The two glycopeptide fractions exhibit compatible B- and H-blood-group activities. They are reactive towards Dolichos biflorus lectin and human anti-A agglutinins, and so exhibit an incompatible A activity. Alkali-borohydride degradation of Pronase-digested glycopeptides gave dialyzable oligosaccharides that were purified and shown to possess 2-acetamido-2-deoxygalactitol at the terminal reducing-end. 2-Acetamido-2-deoxyglucose, galactose, fucose, and neuraminic acid were absent, or present, in variable proportions. Four oligosaccharides containing 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose residues were reactive towards Dolichos biflorus lectin and human anti-A agglutinins, indicating the presence, at the nonreducing end, of a 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl group, responsible for blood-group A activity.  相似文献

Lectin from rice     
N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine-binding lectin was isolated and purified from rice by ammonium sulphate fractionation and affinity chromatography using N-acetyl-D-glucosamine linked Sepharose 6B column. It gave a single hand on Polyacrylamide disc gel. It was identified as a glycoprotein. The purified lectin dissociated into two components on Sephadex G-100 column chromatography,-a higher molecular weight fraction not containing any carbohydrate and a lower molecular weight glycoprotein fraction. The apparent molecular weights of these fractions were 85,000 and 14,500. The lectin agglutinated erythrocytes of human A,B,O groups and of several other mammals and its activity was inhibited only by N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. The glycopeptide isolated by pronase digestion of the lectin was homogeneous and did not possess agglutinating activity. It contained about 10% carbohydrate of which xylose, arabinose and glucose were the major components.  相似文献

A novel mannose-binding tuber lectin with in vitro antiproliferative activity towards human cancer cell lines and antiviral activity against HSV-II was isolated from fresh tubers of a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, Typhonium divaricatum (L.) Decne by a combined procedure involving extraction, ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-SEPHAROSE, CM-SEPHAROSE and gel-filtration on sephacryl S-200. The apparent molecular mass of the purified Typhonium divaricatum lectin (TDL) was 48 kDa. TDL exhibits hemagglutinating activity toward rabbit erythrocytes at 0.95 microg/ml, and its activity could be strongly inhibited by mannan, ovomucoid, asialofetuin and thyroglobulin. TDL showed antiproliferative activity towards some well established human cancer cell lines, e.g. Pro-01 (56.7 +/- 6.8), Bre-04 (41.5 +/- 4.8), and Lu-04 (11.4 +/- 0.3). The anti-HSV-II activity of TDL was elucidated by testing its HSV-II infection inhibitory activity in Vero cells with TC(50) and EC(50) of 5.176 mg/ml and 3.054 microg/ml respectively. The full-length cDNA sequence of TDL was 1145 bp and contained an 813-bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a 271 amino acid precursor of 29-kDa. Homology analysis showed that TDL had high homology with many other mannose-binding lectins. Secondary and three-dimensional structures analyses showed that TDL is heterotetramer and similar with lectins from mannose-binding lectin superfamily, especially those from family Araceae.  相似文献

Immunochemical studies on the specificity of soybean agglutinin   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
The specificity of the purified soybean agglutinin has been studied immunochemically by quantitative precipitin and quantitative precipitin inhibition assays. The lectin is precipitated by human A and Lea blood-group substance, by the products of the second, third, fourth, and fifth stages of periodate oxidation of a human H blood-group substance (JS), and by precursor blood-group substances, as well as by a pig-submaxillary mucin having blood-group A activity, by partially hydrolyzed blood-group B substances (Pl fraction), and by group C streptococcal polysaccharide. The activity is attributable to terminal α-linked 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactopyranosyl or to α- or β-d-galactopyranosyl residues. The lectin did not precipitate with human blood-group H substances, with the product of the first stage of periodate oxidation (JS), with streptococcal group A polysaccharide, or with pig-submaxillary mucin devoid of blood-group A activity, and is poorly precipitated by blood-group B substances. Inhibition of precipitation with various monosaccharides indicated that the lectin is strongly specific for 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactose and for its oligosaccharides, and to a lesser extent for d-galactose and its oligosaccharides; the α-glycosides of both sugars were slightly more reactive than the β-glycosides of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactose, and both α- and β-glycosides were more active than the free monosaccharides. Aromatic α- and β-glycosides of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactose and d-galactose were better inhibitors than the corresponding methyl or ethyl compounds. The blood-group A trisaccharide α-d-GalNAcp-(1→3)-β-d-Galp-(1→3)-d-GlcNAc was more active than the disaccharide lectins by the use of precipitation with polysaccharides, as well as inhibition reactions, is essential to the understanding of their reactivity with cell-surface receptors.  相似文献

A new lectin, named UPL1, was purified from a green alga Ulvapertusa by an affinitychromatography on the bovine-thyroglobulin-Sepharose 4B column. The molecular mass of the algal lectinwas about 23 kD by SDS-PAGE, and it specifically agglutinated rabbit erythrocytes. The hemagglutinatingactivity for rabbit erythrocytes could be inhibited by bovine thyroglobulin and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. Thelectin UPL1 required divalent cations for maintenance of its biological activity, and was heat-stable, and hadhigher activity within pH 6-8. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified lectin was determined(P83209) and a set of degenerate primers were designed. The full-length cDNA of the lectin was cloned byrapid amplification ofcDNA ends (RACE) method (AY433960). Sequence analysis of upll indicated it was! 084 bp long, and encoded a premature protein of 203 amino acids. The N-terminal sequence of the matureUPL1 polypeptide started at amino acid 54 of the deduced sequence from the cDNA, indicating 53 aminoacids lost due to posttranslational modification. The primary structure of the Ulva pertusa lectin did not showamino acid sequence similarity with known plant and animal lectins. Hence, this protein may be the paradigmof a novel lectin family.  相似文献
