    Notes: Abstract  The winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus) agglutinin (total lectin) and its basic (WBA I) and acidic isoform (WBA II) were used to analyze capillaries in sections from human muscle. The microvessels were clearly labeled after incubation with the lectins in both normal muscle and in old muscles with age-related type II atrophy or muscle fiber grouping. Muscle fibers, nerves, and connective tissue remained unstained. The total lectin detected muscle capillaries from all blood group AB0 individuals. The isoform WBA I reacted only with blood vessels in blood group A and B individuals, while the blood vessels in blood group 0 individuals were demonstrated with WBA II. WBA I staining was inhibited by p-nitrophenyl α-galactopyranoside and N-acetylgalactosamine, whereas 2′-fucosyllactose and preincubation with an antibody against type-1 chain H abolished capillary staining with WBA II. The study demonstrates the usefulness of WBA as a marker of capillaries in human muscle.

    Notes: Abstract Complex typeN-linked oligosaccharides derived from fetuin, fibrinogen and thyroglobulin were coupled to acetyltyrosine affording a series of neoglycopeptides with retention of terminal structures and the β-anomeric configuration of their reducing endN-acetylglycosamine residue. The neoglycopeptides thus synthesized could be labelled to high specific activities with125I in the aromatic side chain of tyrosine. Analysis of the fate of these neoglycopeptides in conjunction with inhibition with asialofetuin and oligosaccharides of defined structure in micein vivo revealed the uptake of galactosylated biantennary compound by kidneys, in addition to the known itinerary of triantennary galactosylated complex oligosaccharide from fetuin to liver and the galactosylated biantennary chain with fucosylation in the core to bone marrows. On the other hand, the agalacto, aglucosamino biantennary chains with and without fucosylation in the core region are taken up by submaxillary glands while the conserved trimannosyl core with fucose is primarily concentrated in stomach tissue. These studies thus define new routes for the uptake of complexN-linked glycans and also subserve to identify lectins presumably involved in their recognition.

    Notes: Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) seed lectin, PNA is widely used to identify tumor specific antigen (T-antigen), Galβ1-3GalNAc on the eukaryotic cell surface. The functional amino acid coding region of a cDNA clone, pBSH-PN was PCR amplified and cloned downstream of the polyhedrin promoter in the Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcNPV) based transfer vector pVL1393. Co-transfection of Spodoptera frugiperda cells (Sf9) with the transfer vector, pAcPNA and AcRP6 (a recombinant AcNPV having B-gal downstream of the polyhedrin promoter) DNAs produced a recombinant virus, AcPNA which expresses PNA. Infection of suspension culture of Sf9 cells with plaque purified AcPNA produced as much as 9.8 mg PNA per liter (2.0 × 106 cells/ml) of serum-free medium. Intracellularly expressed protein (re-PNA) was purified to apparent homogeneity by affinity chromatography using ECD-Sepharose. Polyclonal antibodies against natural PNA (n-PNA) cross-reacted with re-PNA. The subunit molecular weight (30kDa), hemagglutination activity, and carbohydrate specificity of re-PNA were found to be identical to that of n-PNA, thus confirming the abundant production of a functionally active protein in the baculovirus expression system.

    Notes: Abstract UDA (Urtica dioica agglutinin) contains two hevein like domains with two non-identical interacting sites and is specific for chitooligosaccharides. The binding of chitooligosaccharides to UDA was studied by Isothermal Titration Calorimetry. Each site is composed of three subsites, each binding to a sugar residue. Thermodynamic parameters obtained show that while chitobiose has two independent non-interacting sites, chitotriose, chitotetrose and chitopentose have two interacting sites on each monomer of UDA. Values of binding enthalpy (ΔH) increase almost by a factor of 7 in going from chitobiose to chitotriose indicating the existence of three subsites in the combining site of UDA. The binding constant for chitotetrose and chitopentose increase without any further enhancement in the values of ΔH indicating that for oligomers larger than chitotriose interaction is favoured entropically.

    Notes: Abstract Modification of tryptophan side chains of soybean agglutinin (SBA) with N-bromosuccinimide results in a loss of the hemagglutinating and carbohydrate binding activities of the protein. One residue/subunit is probably essential for the binding activity. Modification leads to a large decrease in the fluorescene of the protein accompained by a blue shift. Iodide ion quenching of the protein fluorescence shows that saccharide binding results in a decreased accessibility of some of the tryptophan side chains. These results strongly point towards the involvement of tryptophan residues in the active site of SBA.
