| studies on soybean trypsin inhibitors. x. isolation and partial characterization of four soybean double-headed proteinase inhibitors. | four bowman-birk type double-headed inhibitors (b, c-ii, d-ii, and e-i) were isolated from soybeans. inhibitor b was different from bowman-birk inhibitor only in chromatographic behavior. one mole of c-ii inhibited one mole each of bovine trypsin and bovine alpha-chymotrypsin, probably at the same site, and porcine elastase at another reactive site. in the ordinary assay system d-ii and e-i inhibited only trypsin activity at a non-stoichiometric inhibitor-enzyme ratio of 1:1.4, and the complexes ... | 1977 | 599140 |
| cross-linking activity of the 14-kilodalton beta-galactoside-specific vertebrate lectin with asialofetuin: comparison with several galactose-specific plant lectins. | we have previously shown that plant lectins with a wide range of carbohydrate binding specificities can bind and cross-link (precipitate) specific multiantennary oligosaccharides and glycopeptides [cf. bhattacharyya, l., fant, j., lonn, h., & brewer, c. f. (1990) biochemistry 29, 7523-7530]. this leads to a new source of binding specificity: namely, the formation of homogeneous cross-linked lattices between lectins and carbohydrates. recently, we have demonstrated the existence of highly ordered ... | 1992 | 1382578 |
| localization of carbohydrate components in rat colon with fluoresceinated lectins. | cryostat sections of rat descending colon were studied by fluorescence microscopy after exposure to conjugates of fluorescein isothicoyanate with lectins from glycine max (soybean), triticum vulgaris (wheat germ), ricinus communis (castor bean), ulex europaeus, (gorse), dolichos biflorus (horse gram) and canavalia ensiformis (concanavalin a) (jack bean). no two lectins showed identical patterns of fluorescence. fitc-conjugates of soybean and d. biflorus lectins reacted strongly with the mucus pr ... | 1978 | 670681 |
| cummings memorial lecture - 1975. the market basket: food for thought. | the world food crisis is as critical today as when it was debated at the 1974 world food conference in rome. since the united states and canada-and to a lesser extent, australia and new zealand-lead in the production of corn, wheat and soybeans, the north american "bread basket" has become the "market basket" of the world. for welfare, economic, and political reasons, our energies, resources, and deliberations must be expanded toward optimum production of wholesome food products. i do not recomm ... | 1975 | 779439 |
