  • Title: Purification and cell attachment activity of a D-galactose-binding lectin from the skin of sea hare, Aplysia kurodai.
    Author: Ozeki Y.
    Journal: Biochem Mol Biol Int; 1998 Aug; 45(5):989-95. PubMed ID: 9739463.
    Abstract:
    A D-galactose-binding lectin which does not require Ca2+ or reducing reagents to induce activity was purified from skin of sea hare, Aplysia kurodai, by affinity chromatography. Skin lectin was confirmed to be a disulfide-bonded heteromultimer with molecular mass of 200 kDa, consisting of 28 kDa and 26 kDa subunits by SDS-PAGE and two-dimensional SDS-PAGE. Human rhabdomyosarcoma cells attached to and spread on plastic plates coated with lectin. Cell adhesion induced by lectin was completely inhibited by the addition of lactose.
