Riordan; Martina Gentzsch The epithelial chloride channel CFTR is a glycoprotein that is modified by two N-linked oligosaccharides. The most common mutant CFTR protein in patients with cystic...

...Jonathan M. Gibbins Platelets perform a central role in haemostasis and thrombosis. They adhere to subendothelial collagens exposed at sites of blood vessel injury via the glycoprotein (GP) Ib-V-IX receptor complex, GPVI and integrin α 2 β 1 . These receptors perform distinct functions...

...Christopher M. Ward; Katie Barrow; Andrew M. Woods; Peter L. Stern 5T4 oncotrophoblast antigen is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed by trophoblast and many carcinomas but not most normal adult tissues. Results from overexpression of human and mouse 5T4 cDNA in cell lines are consistent...

... extract revealed the presence of the secretory lectin ZG16p, the serpin ZG46p and the GPI-linked glycoprotein GP-2, together with several unknown proteins, and small amounts of lipase and carboxylester lipase. The unknown proteins detected in 2-D gels represented a group of acidic and basic protein spots...

... how HIV-1 negotiates the BBB. Previous work has suggested that gp120, the glycoprotein viral coat of HIV-1, is capable of inducing adsorptive endocytosis. Glycoprotein lectins like wheatgerm agglutinin induce adsorptive endocytosis and greatly potentiate the uptake by and passage across mouse...

...Hiroaki Asaga; Katsutoshi Yoshizato ABSTRACT The role of glycochains of cell surface glycoproteins in the cell to collagen interaction was examined by studying the effect of lectins on the fibroblast-mediated collagen gel contraction. Lectins of Phaseolus vulgaris agglutinin (PHA), concanavalin...

... the plasma membrane, and in addition they are not surrounded by a cell wall. Previous studies on Fucus eggs have shown that the lectin Concanavalin A (ConA) binds in patches on the egg surface, suggesting that there is a non-uniform distribution of plasma membrane glycoproteins. In this paper we have further...

... glycoproteins with the lectin concanavalin A or an anticarbohydrate mouse monoclonal antibody, designated FMG-1, results in a characteristic pattern of glycoprotein redistribution within the plane of the flagellar membrane. Recent evidence suggests that flagellar membrane glycoprotein movements are associated...

To elucidate the adhesion mechanism the binding properties of purified C-CAM were investigated. Using...

Western blotting and antigen-modification techniques have shown that all the MAbs bind to carbohydrate epitopes of a set of high molecular weight glycoproteins (>200×10 3 M r). One of the antibodies, PA6, also binds to several lower molecular weight components...
