Energetics Of Protein-Carbohydrate Recognition
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-04-28)
The work embodied in this thesis pertains to an attempt to understand better, the molecular basis of protein-carbohydrate recognition. For this purpose a systematic study was undertaken, not only of the energetics of ...
Structural Studies On Winged Bean Agglutinins
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-01-11)
Lectins are multivalent carbohydrate binding proteins that specifically recognise diverse sugar structures and mediate a variety of biological processes, such as cell-cell and host-pathogen interactions, serum glycoprotein ...
Structural Investigations Of Sugar-Binding And Multivalency In Peanut Lectin
(2009-03-04)
Starting with the structure analysis of ConA in the 70s, the crystal structures of hundreds of different lectins and their carbohydrate complexes have been determined. Lectins, multivalent carbohydrate-binding proteins ...
Garlic (Allium Sativum) Agglutinin I: Specificity, Binding And Folding Mechanism
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-11-08)
Lectins are a class of proteins that bind to carbohydrates with a high degree of specificity. They are involved in various cellular processes such as, host - pathogen interactions, targeting of proteins within cells, cell ...
