The characteristics of a lectin from the marine bivalve Ruditapes philippinarum (Manila clam) were investigated in this study. A method was developed for the isolation of the Manila clam lectin (MCL). Affinity chromatography using mucin-Sepharose, ion-exchange chromatography with DEAE-Toyoperl, and gel filtration with Superose 6 were used for MCL isolation. SDS-PAGE showed that the MCL protein had a molecular mass of 138 kDa, and consisted of 74-, 34-, and 30-kDa subunits. The native lectin in solution behaved as a 274-kDa protein in gel filtration chromatography. The lectin activity of MCL was Ca2+ -dependent, and the optimal Ca2+ concentration for MCL activity was 20 mM. MCL activity was stable between pH 6 and pH 9, and was temperature-dependent; incubation of MCL at 90 degrees C led to irreversible denaturation. The activity of MCL was not inhibited by the presence of monosaccharides, such as Man, Fuc, Gal, Glc, GlcNAc, and NeuNAc. In contrast, the lectin activity of MCL was strongly inhibited by the presence of porcine mucins. MCL activity was also inhibited by N-acetyl-d-galactosamine, human embryonic alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, and highly branched mannans from marine halophilic bacteria. It appears that MCLs have unusual carbohydrate specificities for N-acetyl-d-galactosamine, which contains both mucin-type carbohydrate chains and highly branched mannans. Immunofluorescence staining revealed that MCL was bound to the surfaces of purified hypnospores from Perkinsus sp., which is a protozoan parasite of Manila clams. 相似文献

Defatted seeds of wilt-disease resistant were extracted overnight with PBS at 4 ℃. After centrifugation. 90% saturated (NH4)2SO4 was added to the supernatant. The precipitates were dialysed against H2O, then lyophilized. The purified lectin was obtained by DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography, Sephadex G-100 filtration, and Sepharose 4B-Hog thyroglohulin affinity chromatography. The activity of the lectin was tested with fresh rabbit erythrocyte in each step of the procedure, and the active part was collected. This sample demonstrated single band on PAGE, SDS-PAGE and HPLC. The lectin was a glycoprotein. It contained 1.5% of neutral saccharide and its molecular weight was 63000 determined by Sephadex G-100 filtration. The N-terminal amino acid of the lectin was Val. The lectin showed no specific agglutination with any type of human erythrocytes. The hemagglutinaition activity could be inhibited by galactose and hog thyroglobilin, and depended on Ca2+, Mn2+, especially on Ca2+, not Mg2+. Its biological activity lost at 65 ℃ for S min. This lectin is used as a mitogen for human peripheral blood lymphocytes. 相似文献

The isolation of three lectins with similar N-terminal amino acid sequences from the bulbs of the Chinese daffodil Narcissus tazetta was achieved. The isolation protocol involved ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on mannose-agarose, and fast protein liquid chromatography-gel filtration on Superose 12. The lectins were all adsorbed on mannose-agarose and demonstrated a single band with a molecular weight of 13 kDa in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and a single 26 kDa peak in gel filtration, indicating that they were mannose-binding, dimeric proteins. The lectins differed in hemagglutinating activity, with the magnitude of the activity correlating with the ionic strength of the buffer required to elute the lectin from the DEAE-cellulose column. The bulb lectin did not exert potent cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines or fetal bovine lung cells but inhibited syncytium formation in, and reinstated viability of, fetal bovine lung cells infected with bovine immunodeficiency virus. 相似文献

A lectin with high hemagglutinating activity, which we have named Dorin M, was identified in the plasma of the soft tick Ornithodoros moubata. The activity of the plasma lectin could be efficiently inhibited by sialic acid, N-acetyl-D-hexosamines and sialoglycoproteins. Dorin M was purified to homogeneity using two different isolation systems: affinity chromatography on a column of bovine submaxillary mucin conjugated to Sepharose 4B with specific elution by N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and chromatography on Blue-Sepharose followed by anion exchange FPLC on a MonoQ column. The purified lectin is a glycoprotein which, in the native state, forms aggregates with molecular mass of about 640 kDa. Non-reducing SDS PAGE revealed that the lectin consists of two noncovalently bound subunits migrating closely around 37 kDa. Dorin M is a glycoprotein, probably modified by N-type glycosylation. After chemical deglycosylation, only one band of about 32 kDa was detected. Dorin M is the first lectin purified from ticks. 相似文献

棕尾别麻蝇(Sarcophaga peregrina)幼虫与蛹血淋巴凝集素的纯化与特性 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
用亲和层析法纯化了棕尾别麻蝇幼虫和蛹血淋巴凝集素。以兔红细胞吸附幼虫血淋巴凝集素为抗原制备的抗体、球球蛋白和甲状腺蛋白等三种亲和层析吸附剂纯化得到的幼虫凝集素是相同的,其分子量73kD左右。用甲状腺球蛋白为亲和配基纯化的蛹血淋巴凝集素由二种亚基组成,其分子量分别为30和32kD。幼虫和蛹血淋巴凝集素活性的抑制糖明显不同:乳糖、岩藻糖和N-乙酰半乳糖胺对幼虫血淋巴凝集素活性有抑制作用;而甘露糖胺、半乳糖胺和葡萄糖胺则对蛹血淋巴集素有一定抑制。而且,用兔红细胞吸附幼虫血淋巴凝集素为抗原制备的抗血清对蛹的凝集素活性无交叉反应,表明这两种凝集素是不相同的。虽然本文所纯化的麻蝇蛹血淋巴凝集素的分子量和Komano等报道的麻蝇蛹以及幼虫体壁 伤害诱导的凝集素SPL相同,但其糖的抑制特性有明显差异。 相似文献

A tetrameric lectin, with hemagglutinating activity toward rabbit erythrocytes and with specificity toward d-mannosamine and d(+)-mannose, was isolated from the ovaries of a teleost, the cobia Rachycentron canadum. The isolation protocol comprised ion exchange chromatography on CM-cellulose and Q-Sepharose, ion exchange chromatography
by fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) on Mono Q, and finally gel filtration by FPLC on Superose 12. The lectin was
adsorbed on all ion exchangers used. It exhibited a molecular mass of 180 kDa in gel filtration on Superose 12 and a single
45-kDa band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating that it is a tetrameric protein. The
hemagglutinating activity of the lectin was stable up to 40°C and between pH 4 and pH 10. All hemagglutinating activity disappeared
at 60°C and at pH 1 and pH 13. The hemagglutinating activity was doubled in the presence of 0.1 μM FeCl3. The lectin exerted antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli with 50% inhibition at 250 μg. There was no antifungal activity toward Coprinus comatus, Fusarium oxysporum, Mycosphaerella arachidicola, and Rhizoctonia solani at a dose of 300 μg. The lectin exhibited maximal mitogenic response from mouse splenocytes at a concentration of 14 μM. 相似文献

An N-acetylglucosamine-binding lectin with a molecular mass of 32kDa was isolated from fresh sclerotia of the edible mushroom Pleurotus tuber-regium. Its N-terminal sequence exhibited some similarity to that of Agaricus bisporus lectin. The isolation procedure was simple, involving (NH(4))(2)SO(4) precipitation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-agarose, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. The lectin exhibited hemagglutinating activity toward trypsinized rabbit erythrocytes but not toward untrypsinized rabbit erythrocytes. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of a novel lectin from the mushroom Armillaria luteo-virens 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

From the dried fruiting bodies of the mushroom Armillaria luteo-virens, a dimeric lectin with a molecular mass of 29.4 kDa has been isolated. The purification procedure involved (NH(4))(2)SO(4) precipitation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, CM-cellulose, and Q-Sepharose, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. The hemagglutinating activity of the lectin could not be inhibited by simple sugars but was inhibited by the polysaccharide inulin. The activity was stable up to 70 degrees C but was acid- and alkali-labile. Salts including FeCl(3), AlCl(3), and ZnCl(2) inhibited the activity whereas MgCl(2), MnCl(2), and CaCl(2) did not. The lectin stimulated mitogenic response of mouse splenocytes with the maximal response achieved by 1microM lectin. Proliferation of tumor cells including MBL2 cells, HeLa cells, and L1210 cells was inhibited by the lectin with an IC(50) of 2.5, 5, and 10 microM, respectively. However, proliferation of HepG2 cells was not affected. The novel aspects of the isolated lectin include a novel N-terminal sequence, fair thermostability, acid stability, and alkali stability, together with potent mitogenic activity toward spleen cells and antiproliferative activity toward tumor cells. 相似文献

A lectin recognizing both Galbeta1-3GlcNAc and Galbeta1-4GlcNAc was purified from the demosponge Halichondria okadai by lactosyl-agarose affinity chromatography. The molecular mass of the lectin was determined to be 30 kDa by SDS-PAGE under reducing and non-reducing conditions and 60 kDa by gel permeation chromatography. The pI value of the lectin was 6.7. It was found to agglutinate trypsinized and glutaraldehyde-fixed rabbit and human erythrocytes in the presence and absence of divalent cations. The hemagglutinating activity by the lectin was inhibited by d-galactose, methyl-d-galactopyranoside, N-acetyl-d-galactosamine, methyl-N-acetyl-d-galactosaminide, lactose, melibiose, and asialofetuin. The K(d) of the lectin against p-nitrophenyl-beta-lactoside was determined to be 2.76x10(-5) M and its glycan-binding profile given by frontal affinity chromatography was shown to be similar to many other known galectins. Partial primary structure analysis of 7 peptides by cleavage with lysyl endopeptidase indicated that one of the peptides showed significant similarity with galectin purified from the sponge Geodia cydonium. 相似文献

To understand better the host defense mechanisms of mollusks against pathogens, we examined the anti-microbial activity of mucus from the giant African snail Achatina fulica. Hemagglutination activity of the mucus secreted by the integument of snails inoculated with Escherichia coli was observed to increase and to cause hemagglutination of rabbit red blood cells. Purification of the snail mucus lectin by sequential column chromatography revealed that the relative molecular mass of the lectin was 350 kDa. The hemagglutination activity of the lectin was Ca(2+)-dependent and was inhibited by galactose. Growth arrest tests showed that the lectin did not inhibit bacterial growth, but did induce agglutination of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Tissue distribution analyses using a polyclonal antibody revealed that the lectin was expressed in the tissues of the mantle collar. The lectin isolated from the mucus of the snail appeared to contribute to its innate immunity. 相似文献

Two lectins from the serum of the mosquito, Anopheles stephensi (Liston), with distinct characteristics, were detected by agglutination of various animal erythrocytes. The lectins were developmental stage-specific and/or sex-related. One adult female-specific lectin was identified as mannan-specific, and named mosquito mannan-binding lectin (MBL). MBL cross-reacted immunologically with antibodies against a previously characterized cockroach lectin, Blaberus discoidalis lectin (BDL1), and its activity was almost completely blocked by the antibodies. Mosquito MBL agglutinated erythrocytes from human, sheep, goat and rabbit, but not chicken or mouse, and agglutination was inhibited by mannan and nitrophenol-modified sugar derivatives, but not by simple sugars. Using affinity chromatography with immobilized mannan on Sepharose 6B, the mosquito MBL was partially purified. Purified mosquito MBL shared biochemical properties with BDL1, containing two subunits of molecular mass of 28 and 30 kDa under reducing conditions in SDS/PAGE. Its activity is dependent on Ca(2+), and it is stable at pH 7-9 and at temperatures less than 30 degrees C. 相似文献

We determined the cellular localization of an endogenous lectin at various times during the development of a well-characterized region of chick brain, the optic tectum. This lectin is a carbohydrate-binding protein that interacts with lactose and other saccharides, undergoes striking changes in specific activity with development, and has previously been purified by affinity chromatography from extracts of embryonic chick brain and muscle. Cellular localization in the tectum was done by indirect immunofluoresecent staining, using immunoglobulin G derived from an antiserum raised against pure lectin. No lectin was detectable in the optic tectum examined at 5 days of embryonic development. From approximately 7 days of development, neuronal cell bodies and fibers were labeled by the antibody; and extracts of tectum contained hemagglutination activity that could be inhibited by lactose or by the antiserum. Lectin remained present in many tectal neuronal layers after hatching; but in 2-month-old chicks it was sparse or absent in most of the tectum except for prominent labeling of fibers in the stratum album centrale. The initial appearance of lectin in the optic tectum was not dependent on innervation by optic nerve fibers since bilateral enucleation during embryogenesis did not affect it. Lectin was detectable on the surface of embryonic optic tectal neurons dissociated with a buffer containing EDTA. 相似文献
