Pleurotus cornucopiae mycelial lectin (PCL-M) is a divalent cation-dependent GalNAc-specific lectin that is purified from the mycelia of the edible mushroom Pleurotus cornucopiae. PCL-M is produced only in dikaryotic mycelia growing on solid medium and is not present in the mycelia of fruiting bodies. It is a multimeric glycoprotein composed of 40 kDa subunits linked by disulfide bonds. PCL-M is localized on the surface of aggregating mycelia and may be involved in primordia formation. The procedure for PCL-M purification has been discussed herein. Additionally, an experimental method for analyzing the localization of PCL-M on mycelial surface has been described.
姬松茸菌丝体凝集素(PCL-M)是一种二价阳离子依赖性半乳糖胺特异性凝集素,从可食用蘑菇姬松茸的菌丝体中纯化得到。PCL-M 仅在生长在固体培养基上的双核菌丝体中产生,而不在子实体的菌丝体中存在。它是一种由 40 kDa 亚基组成的多聚体糖蛋白,通过二硫键连接。PCL-M 位于聚集菌丝体的表面,可能参与原基形成。本文讨论了 PCL-M 的纯化程序。此外,还描述了一种用于分析 PCL-M 在菌丝体表面定位的实验方法。
