In medicine these proteins are useful and are used as a mitogen to trigger T-lymphocyte cell division and to activate latent HIV-1 from human peripheral lymphocytes.In neuroscience, anterograde tracing is a research method that uses the protein product phytohaemagglutinin PHA-L as a molecular tracer that can be taken up by the cell and transported across the synapse into the next cell thereby ...
A lectin from Ulex europaeus is used to identify the H blood group antigen. A lectin from Vicia graminea is used to identify the N blood group antigen. A lectin from Iberis amara is used to identify the M blood group antigen. Non blood-group antigens can be identified by lectins: A lectin from coconut milk is used to identify Theros antigen.
Parainfluenza hemagglutinin-neuraminidase: a type of hemagglutinin-neuraminidase produced by parainfluenza, which is closely associated with both human and veterinary disease. [17] Mumps hemagglutinin-neuraminidase: a kind of hemagglutinin that the mumps virus (MuV) produces. [18] Hemagglutinin: the PH-E form of phytohaemagglutinin.
A C-type lectin (CLEC) is a type of carbohydrate-binding protein known as a lectin. [3] The C-type designation is from their requirement for calcium for binding. [ 4 ] Proteins that contain C-type lectin domains have a diverse range of functions including cell-cell adhesion, immune response to pathogens and apoptosis .

In molecular biology, the leguminous lectin family is a family of lectin proteins. It is one of the largest lectin families with more than 70 lectins reported in a review in 1990. [ 1 ] Leguminous lectins consist of two or four subunits , each containing one carbohydrate-binding site.
Structure of mannose in its α-D mannopyranose form. Mannan is a polymer of mannose.. The lectin pathway or MBL pathway is a type of cascade reaction in the complement system, similar in structure to the classical complement pathway, [1] in that, after activation, it proceeds through the action of C4 and C2 to produce activated complement proteins further down the cascade.
In molecular biology the L-like lectin domain is a protein domain found in lectins which are similar to the leguminous plant lectins. Lectins are structurally diverse proteins that bind to specific carbohydrates. This family includes the VIP36 and ERGIC-53 lectins. [1]
