C-type lectins (CTLs) are a superfamily of proteins found in almost all vertebrates and invertebrates. They play an important role in innate immune defences, development and epidermal structure. Here, a CTL with one carbohydrate-recognition domain containing a highly conserved Gln-Pro-Asp (QPD)...
Glycoside Hydrolase family 65 (GH65) is a unique family of carbohydrate-active enzymes. It is the first protein family to bring together glycoside hydrolases, glycoside phosphorylases and glycosyltransferases, thereby spanning a broad range of reaction types. These enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis, reve...
Insulin is normally produced after the level of glucose in the blood increases. It is normally secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas. Insulin can thus be released into the body in the following scenarios; After a meal intake, such as a carbohydrate-rich meal After taking a sugary ...

Trehalose is a disaccharide (α-D-glucopyranosyl α-D-glucopyranoside) commonly found in many fungi and present in particularly high concentrations in stationary-phase cells and survival forms. For a long time, trehalose was considered to be a storage carbohydrate, accumulated under conditions of immi...

Due to the mitochondrion's ability to generate mass amounts of ATP, it is called the of the cell. must combine with the carbohydrate to carry out cellular respiration within the mitochondria. During cellular respiration, carbohydrates are broken down into ...
Plant cells are eukaryotic cells, that are found in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae which means they have a membrane-bound nucleus.
