The aim of this study was to establish the normal pattern of some haemato-immunological parameters in the mussel Perna perna to serve as a reference for further studies using this species as a biological indicator of environmental... more
A lectin was purified from the leaves of Allium altaicum and corresponding gene was cloned. The lectin namely Allium altaicum agglutinin (AAA) was ~24 kDa homodimeric protein and similar to a typical garlic leaf lectin. It was synthesized... more
With increasing use of lectin genes in crop plants to improve insect resistance, the dietary exposure of humans to lectins will rise and it is necessary to assess whether the presently most favored insecticidal lectin, Galanthus nivalis... more
The effect of expressing the gene encoding snowdrop lectin (Galanthus nivalis agglutinin, GNA) in transgenic potato plants, on parasitism of the phytophagous insect pest Lacanobia oleracea by the gregarious ectoparasitoid Eulophus... more
The galactoside-specific Viscum album L. agglutinin (VAA) is a potent biohazard akin to ricin and a mitogen for immune and tumor cells. These activities depend on cell surface binding to glycans. It is an open question whether the process... more
The peptide domain of salivary agglutinin responsible for its interaction with cell surface protein antigen (PAc) of Streptococcus mutans or bovine lactoferrin was found in the same peptide, scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain peptide... more

Few papers have been published on tick lectins so far, and therefore more data are needed to complete the mosaic of knowledge of their structural and functional properties. Tissue-specific lectin/haemagglutinin activities of both soft and... more
