Research Abstract |
In order to elucidate biological functions of glycans, it is essential to make a comprehensive approach to their partner molecules, endogeneous lectins. A considerably large number of lectin candidate molecuoles are found in the human geneome data base. Based on the information it is now possible to produce their recombinant proteins and investigate systematically their sugar-binding properties by means of advanced glycotechnologies developed in our group, e. g., glycoconjugate microarray and frontal affinity chromatography. Both of their possible roles in vivo and utilities as tools are studied.
