  • Title: Structural feature of N-glycans of bamboo shoot glycoproteins: useful source of plant antigenic N-glycans.
    Author: Tanabe C, Furuta K, Maeda M, Kimura Y.
    Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2017 Jul; 81(7):1405-1408. PubMed ID: 28471334.
    Abstract:
    An effective method to prepare plant complex type (PCT) N-glycans in large amounts has been required to evaluate their immunological activity. In this study, we found that glycoproteins in bamboo shoots predominantly carry PCT N-glycans including the Lewis a epitope-containing ones, suggesting that bamboo shoot is an excellent source for the plant antigenic glycans to synthesize immunoactive neoglycopolymers.
