An Entity of Type: protein, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In molecular biology, the jacalin-like lectin domain is a mannose-binding lectin domain with a beta-prism fold consisting of three 4-stranded beta-sheets, with an internal pseudo 3-fold symmetry. Some lectins in this group stimulate distinct T- and B-cell functions, such as Jacalin, which binds to the T-antigen and acts as an agglutinin. This domain is found in 1 to 6 copies in lectins. The domain is also found in the salt-stress induced protein from rice and an animal prostatic spermine-binding protein.

dbo:abstract
  • In molecular biology, the jacalin-like lectin domain is a mannose-binding lectin domain with a beta-prism fold consisting of three 4-stranded beta-sheets, with an internal pseudo 3-fold symmetry. Some lectins in this group stimulate distinct T- and B-cell functions, such as Jacalin, which binds to the T-antigen and acts as an agglutinin. This domain is found in 1 to 6 copies in lectins. The domain is also found in the salt-stress induced protein from rice and an animal prostatic spermine-binding protein. Database of jacalin like lectins and structure function relations. Proteins containing this domain include: * Jacalin, a tetrameric plant seed lectin and agglutinin from Artocarpus heterophyllus (jackfruit), which is specific for galactose. * Artocarpin, a tetrameric plant seed lectin from A. heterophyllus. * Lectin MPA, a tetrameric plant seed lectin and agglutinin from Maclura pomifera (Osage orange). * Heltuba lectin, a plant seed lectin and agglutinin from Helianthus tuberosus (Jerusalem artichoke). * Agglutinin from Calystegia sepium (Hedge bindweed). * Griffithsin, an anti-viral lectin from red algae (Griffithsia species).
