Galanthus nivalisagglutinin (GNA, a 50 kDa tetramer) is a mannose-specific lectin of the Amaryllidaceae family of bulb lectins. Crystal structures of GNA complexed with methyl-α-D-mannose (MeMan) and mannose-α1,3-D- mannose-α-OMe (MeMan-2) have been determined and analyzed in terms of...
An alpha-D-galactoside-specific lectin from Bandeiraea simplicifolia (BSLI) showed differential binding to cortical cells of the wool follicle bulb. The lectin bound to cells on one side only of the bulb and was completely blocked by alpha-D-galactose. The region of lectin binding extended from...
We examined the lectin binding patterns in the olfactory bulb of a semi-aquatic urodele, the Japanese red-bellied newt, Cynops pyrrhogaster, using 22 different lectins. Eleven of the lectins showed specific binding to the nerve fibres and glomeruli in the olfactory bulb. Among these, Wheat germ...
Bioinformatics analysis results clearly indicate that ZGBL belongs to the monocot mannose-binding lectin family, which contains 3 putative mannose-binding sites per subunit. RT-PCR analysis results indicate that ZGBL is constitutively expressed in all the tested tissue types including root, bulb, leaf...

olfactory bulbWe histologically examined lectin binding patterns in the olfactory bulb of mallard ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) using 21 biotinylated lectins. Positive staining for the N-acetylglucosamine-specific lectins (Bandeiraea simplicifolia II, Datura stramonium, Lycopersicon esculentum, Solanum tuberosum,...
