A normal mucin-binding lectin from the sponge Craniella australiensis

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.

Purification and characterization of a lectin from wild sunflower (Helianthus tuberosus L.) tubers

A lectin (HTTL) was isolated from Helianthus tuberosus L. (wild sunflower) tubers using ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography. The lectin agglutinated both untreated and trypsin-treated rabbit erythrocytes and did not agglutinate human blood cells of groups A, B, and O. The gel filtration showed the native molecular mass of 72 kDa and subunit molecular masses of 17 and 18.5 kDa on 12% SDS-PAGE. The lectin activity was inhibited by D-mannose. The tetrameric protein revealed a unique characteristic by forming a broad zone of protein in native PAGE at pH 8.3, which dissociated into seven subunits of varying e/m ratios on acid gel at pH 4.3. These seven bands revealed two polypeptide species of molecular masses 17 and 18.5 kDa on 12% SDS-PAGE, as in the case of the native protein. The result indicated that of the seven subunits, three were homotetramers of 17 kDa, one was a homotetramer of 18.5 kDa, and three were heterotetramers of 17 and 18.5 kDa. The lectin was thermostable with broad pH optima (pH 4-8) and had no requirement for divalent metal cations for its activity. The amino acid composition showed that the lectin contained higher amounts of glycine, alanine, and lysine, but no methionine. The sugar content was estimated to be 5.3% mannose equivalent. The HTTL was mitogenic to mouse spleen (total) cells at 25 microg/ml concentration. The lectin showed characteristics different from those of the earlier reported H. tuberosus tuber lectins and hence opens up a new avenue to investigate the structure-function relationship of lectin in Helianthus species.     

Purification and Characterization of Cotton Lectin

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.     

Characterization of a galactose binding serum lectin from the Indian catfish, Clarias batrachus: possible involvement of fish lectins in differential recognition of pathogens

A lectin with molecular mass around 200 kDa was isolated from the serum of the Indian catfish Clarias batrachus. The bioactivity of this serum lectin was Ca2+ and pH dependent. The lectin appeared to be specific for alpha-methyl galactose and sialoglycoproteins like porcine and bovine submaxillary mucin and could agglutinate human, rabbit, mice, rat and chicken erythrocytes. This fish lectin was able to specifically agglutinate different gram negative bacteria. When it was checked against different strains of the fish pathogen Aeromonas sp., it significantly altered the viability and pathogenicity of the bacteria. Binding of the lectin to Aeromonas sp., resulted in a dose dependent increase in the bactericidal activity of fish macrophages. However, when the lectin was checked against different gram positive bacteria it could not agglutinate or affect the viability of those strains and also failed to bring about any significant change in the bactericidal potential of fish macrophages. The lectin was able to induce the proliferation of head kidney lymphocytes of Clarias and helped in the release of 'IL-1' like cytokines from head kidney macrophages.     

Purification and characterization of a cell-surface lectin (Lectin II) from Agrobacterium radiobacter NCIM 2443

A lectin was isolated from Agrobacterium radiobacter cell surface and purified. It is a monomer of 40 kDa as shown by SDS-PAGE. The lectin has a pI of 9.15 and amino acid composition of the lectin shows that 44% of the amino acids are hydrophobic. The lectin agglutinates rabbit erythrocytes but does not agglutinate human erythrocytes. It does not show specificity for monosaccharides except for D-glucosamine. Fetuin and its N-linked glycopeptide also inhibit the activity of the lectin but greater inhibition is shown by locust bean gum and Nicotiana tobaccum (tobacco) tissue extracts.     

Isolation, molecular and biological properties of a lectin from rice embryo: relationship with wheat germ agglutinin properties

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.     

Molecular characterization of a new lectin from the marine alga Ulva pertusa

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.
