Vicia villosa lectin (VVL, VVA), Unconjugated
L-1230
| isolated from Vicia villosa (hairy vetch) seeds |
| This lectin is a family of tetrameric glycoproteins consisting of combinations of A and B subunits similar in structure to PHA and GSL I. The dominant isolectins in our preparations appear to be B subunit-rich. VVL recognizes preferentially alpha- or beta-linked terminal N-acetylgalactosamine, especially a single alpha N-acetylgalactosamine residue linked to serine or threonine in a polypeptide (the “Tn antigen”). Evidence suggests that this lectin also may require specific amino acid sequences at the receptor site of glycosylation. The disaccharide galactosyl (a-1,3) N-acetylgalactosamine is also a potent inhibitor of this lectin. |
