Pea (Pisum sativum L.) seed isolectins 1 and 2 and pea root lectin result from carboxypeptidase-like processing of a single gene product

Destabilisation of pea lectin by substitution of a single amino acid in a surface loop

Mutational analysis of pea lectin: Substitution of Asn125 for Asp in the monosaccharide-binding site eliminates mannose/glucose-binding activity

As part of a strategy to determine the precise role of pea (Pisum sativum) lectin, Psl, in nodulation of pea by Rhizobium leguminosarum, mutations were introduced into the genetic determinant for pea lectin by site-directed mutagenesis using PCR. Introduction of a specific mutation, N125D, into a central area of the sugar-binding site resulted...
