Nascimento K, Morada R, Oliveira M, Martins F, Sacramento-Neto J, Cavada B
Int J Biol Macromol . 2024 Oct; 282(Pt 1):136564. PMID: 39414198
Lectins are ubiquitous proteins that selectively bind to carbohydrates, serving as vital models for understanding protein-carbohydrate interactions. While extensively distributed across various life forms, plant lectins, especially from the Leguminosae...

Osterne V, Pinto-Junior V, Oliveira M, Nascimento K, Van Damme E, Cavada B
Curr Res Struct Biol . 2024 Apr; 7:100140. PMID: 38559841
The mechanisms behind Concanavalin A (ConA) circular permutation have been under investigation since 1985. Although a vast amount of information is available about this lectin and its applications, the exact...

Lossio C, Osterne V, Pinto-Junior V, Chen S, Oliveira M, Verduijn J, et al.
Int J Mol Sci . 2023 Nov; 24(21). PMID: 37958949
Cells use glycans to encode information that modulates processes ranging from cell-cell recognition to programmed cell death. This information is encoded within a glycocode, and its decoding is performed by...

Osterne V, Oliveira M, De Schutter K, Serna S, Reichardt N, Smagghe G, et al.
Glycoconj J . 2022 Oct; 40(1):85-95. PMID: 36287345
The Dalbergieae lectin group encompasses several lectins with significant differences in their carbohydrate specificities and biological properties. The current work reports on the purification and characterization of a GalNAc/Gal-specific lectin...

Mota F, Nascimento K, Oliveira M, Osterne V, Clemente J, Correia-Neto C, et al.
Int J Biol Macromol . 2022 Jan; 199:243-251. PMID: 35016969
The lack of specific pharmacological therapy for Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and its clinical heterogeneity demand efforts directed toward the identification of biomarkers to aid in diagnosis. Proteomics offers a...

Int J Biol Macromol . 2021 Nov; 193(Pt B):1562-1571. PMID: 34740693
Lectins from plants of the Diocleinae subtribe often exhibit specificity towards mannose/glucose and derived sugars, with some plants also displaying a second lectin specific to lactose/GalNAc. Here, we present a...

Botelho T, Osterne V, Pinto-Junior V, Oliveira M, Cavada B, Nascimento K, et al.
Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol . 2021 May; 129(2):130-138. PMID: 33993648
Lectins are proteins that recognize specific carbohydrates, and the vasorelaxant effect of legume lectins has been previously reported, for example the Dioclea rostrata lectin (DRL). This study evaluated major pathways...
