Macroporous cellulose Granocel was evaluated as a matrix for the immobilization of two lectins Concanavalin A (ConA) (108 kDa) and Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA) (36 kDa). Two different methods were employed for the immobilization of the lectins via their protein moieties by a Schiff's bases reaction. One of them results in covalent coupling of the lectin directly to the support and the other gives the attachment through a long spacer arm which benefits the immobilization of voluminous ConA molecules. The adsorbents were characterized by the glycoproteins sorption recording adsorption kinetic data and isotherms. The adsorbents demonstrated high affinity to glycoproteins with a sorption capacity in the column up to 7.4 mg/ml support and a high recovery (up to 93%). The adsorption isotherms of glucose oxidase (GOD) onto ConA adsorbents reveals an adsorption behavior with high and low affinity binding sites. The dissociation constant K(d) of the ligand-sorbate complex is approximately 1 x 10(-6) and 0.4 x 10(-5)M, respectively. It was supposed that the second step is related to the sorption of solvated GOD onto already adsorbed GOD forming sorbate dimers.

Glycosylation changes of circulating proteins carrying the CA19-9 antigen may offer new targets for detection methods to be explored for the diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Search for assay designs for targets initially captured by a CA19-9 antigen reactive antibody from human body fluids by probing with fluorescent nanoparticles coated with lectins or antibodies to known EOC associated proteins. CA19-9 antigens were immobilized from ascites fluids, ovarian cyst fluids or serum samples using monoclonal antibody C192 followed by probing of carrier proteins using anti-MUC16, anti-MUC1 and, anti STn antibodies and seven lectins, all separately coated on nanoparticles.

The intricate combination of organic and inorganic compounds found in snake venom includes proteins, peptides, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleotides, and metal ions. These components work together to immobilise and consume prey through processes such as paralysis and hypotension. Proteins, both enzymatic and non-enzymatic, form the primary components of the venom.

The analysis of protein-bound glycans has gained significant attention due to their pivotal roles in physiological and pathological processes like cell-cell recognition, immune response, and disease progression. Routine methods for glycan analysis are challenged by the very similar physicochemical properties of their carbohydrate components. As an alternative, lectins, which are proteins that specifically bind to glycans, have been integrated into biosensors for glycan detection.

The commonly altered glycosylation of tumor cells is a hallmark of tumor progression and metastasis formation. One prominent example is the interaction of sialylated glycans at the tumor cell surface with endothelial (E)-selectin as an early event of an adhesion cascade that enables extravasation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) into distant tissues. In a previous study, we identified GCNT3 (mucin-type core2/ core4 β1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) highly over-expressed in gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma cells that facilitate the canonical E-selectin ligands sialyl-Lewis A and X (sLeA/X) for E-selectin binding and endothelial adhesion.

Lectin affinity chromatography is one of powerful tools for the study of protein glycosylation. Different lectin proteins can recognize different structures of monosaccharides or oligosaccharide units, allowing for the selective separation of glycopeptides or glycoproteins containing different polysaccharide structures. However, the N-glycans were only partially captured by most of common lectins, reducing the coverage rate of identifying N-glycoconjugates.
