✦ Synopsis


The antitumour lectin from Agrocybe aegerita, named AAL, shows strong inhibition effects on human and mouse tumour cells via apoptosis induction activity. Recombinant AAL (rAAL) has been expressed and purified. Both rAAL and rAAL -lactose complex have been crystallized and their X-ray diffraction data were collected to resolutions of 1.9 A ˚and 1.6 A ˚, respectively. Both crystals belong to space group

Lectins or agglutinins are proteins with affinity for specific sugar residues. Peanut agglutinin (PNA) and the lectin from the edible mushroom (Agaricus bisporus, ABL) both bind to the disaccharide galactosyl beta-1,3-N-acetyl galactosamine alpha-. This is expressed in keratinocytes as an O-linked c
