dc.description.abstract | Two new mannose-binding lectins were isolated from garlic (Allium sativum, ASA) and ramsons (Allium ursinum, AUA) bulbs, of the family Alliaceae, by affinity chromatography on immobilized mannose. The carbohydrate-binding specificity of these two lectins was studied by quantitative precipitation and hapten-inhibition assay. ASA reacted strongly with a synthetic linear (1 --> 3)-[alpha]--mannan and S. cerevisia mannan, weakly with a synthetic (1 --> 6)-[alpha]--mannan, and failed to precipitate with galactomannans from T. gropengiesseri and T. lactis-condensi, a linear mannopentaose, and murine IgM. On the other hand, AUA gave a strong reaction of precipitation with murine IgM, and good reactions with S. cerevisiae mannan and both synthetic mannans, suggesting that the two lectins have somewhat different binding specificities for [alpha]--mannosyl units. Of the saccharides tested as inhibitors of precipitation, those with [alpha]-(1 --> 3)-linked mannosyl units were the best inhibitors of ASA, the [alpha]-(1 --> 2)-, [alpha]-(1 --> 4)-, and [alpha]-(1 --> 6)-linked mannobioses and biosides having less than one eighth the affinity of the [alpha]-(1 --> 3)-linked compounds. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of ASA exhibits 79% homology with that of AUA, and moderately high homology (53%) with that of snowdrop bulb lectin, also an [alpha]--mannosyl-binding lectin. | en_US |
