Abstract

Lectins are present in the exudate (presumably from the phloem) of the fruits of three species of the Cucurbitaceae, namely vegetable marrow (Cucurbita pepo), melon (Cucumis melo) and cucumber (Cucumis sativus). They are all strongly inhibited in their activities by chitin oligosaccharides, but only weakly by N-acetylglucosamine. Glycopeptides from soya-bean agglutinin and fetuin are also strong inhibitors of Cucurbita pepo lectin, indicating that it interacts with internal N-acetylglucosamine residues. The lectin from Cucurbita pepo fruit was purified by affinity chromatography by using chitin oligosaccharides covalently attached to Sepharose. The lectin is not a glycoprotein, and it consists of a single polypeptide chain of about 20,000 mol.wt. It is a major protein (18% of the total) of the phloem exudate and it is postulated that it may have an anti-parasitic function.

摘要

凝集素存在于葫芦科三种植物果实的渗出液(可能来自韧皮部)中,这三种植物分别是西葫芦(南瓜属西葫芦)、甜瓜(甜瓜属甜瓜)和黄瓜(黄瓜属黄瓜)。它们的活性都受到几丁质寡糖的强烈抑制,但仅受到N - 乙酰葡糖胺的微弱抑制。来自大豆凝集素和胎球蛋白的糖肽也是西葫芦凝集素的强抑制剂,这表明它与内部的N - 乙酰葡糖胺残基相互作用。通过使用共价连接到琼脂糖上的几丁质寡糖,通过亲和色谱法纯化了西葫芦果实中的凝集素。该凝集素不是糖蛋白,它由一条分子量约为20,000的单多肽链组成。它是韧皮部渗出液中的一种主要蛋白质(占总量的18%),据推测它可能具有抗寄生虫功能。
