| C type lectin | <cell biology> One of two classes of lectin produced by animal cells, the other being the S type. The C type lectins require disulphide linked cysteines and Ca ions in order to bind to a specific carbohydrate (c.f. S type lectins). The carbohydrate recognition domain of C type lectins consists of about 130 amino acids which contains 18 invariant residues in a highly conserved pattern. These invariant residues include cysteines which probably form disulphide bonds. So far, all identified C type lectins are extracellular proteins and include both Integral membrane proteins, such as the asialoglycoprotein receptor and soluble proteins. (06 Aug 1998) |

| potato lectin | <protein> Lectin from the potato, Solanum tuberosum. Binds to N acetyl glucosaminyl residues. (18 Nov 1997) |
| S type lectin | <protein> One of two classes of lectin produced by animal cells. The classification of animal lectins into two classes, the other being the C type, was originally proposed by K.Drickamer. The carbohydrate binding activity of the S type lectins requires their cysteines to have free thiols and does not need divalent cations (c.f. C type lectins). They mostly have molecular masses in the range 14-16 kD and often form dimers and higher oligomers. The carbohydrate recognition domain contains a number of critically conserved amino acids and largely binds to _ galactosides. S type lectins certainly occur as cytoplasmic proteins but the existence of extracellular S type lectins is still a matter of debate. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lectin | <plant biology> Proteins obtained particularly from the seeds of leguminous plants, but also from many other plant and animal sources, that have binding sites for specific mono or oligosaccharides in cell walls or membranes. They thereby change the physiology of the membrane to cause agglutination, mitosis, or other biochemical changes in the cell. Named originally for the ability of some to selectively agglutinate human red blood cells of particular blood groups. Lectins such as concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin are widely used as analytical and preparative agents in the study of glycoproteins. (21 Jun 2000) |
| vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 | Cytokine-induced cell adhesion molecule present on activated endothelial cells, tissue macrophages, dendritic cells, bone marrow fibroblasts, myoblasts, and myotubes. It is important for the recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cell adhesion molecule | <molecular biology> Although this could mean any molecule involved in cellular adhesive phenomena, it has acquired a more restricted sense, namely a molecule on the surface of animal tissue cells, antibodies (or Fab fragments) against that specifically inhibit some form of intercellular adhesion. Examples are Liver Cell Adhesion Molecule and Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule, both named from tissues in which first detected, although their occurrence is not in fact restricted to these. Acronym: CAM (26 Nov 1998) |
| repellant guiding molecule | <cell biology> Specific molecules that inhibit the activity of growth cones and are thought to be important in establishing axon pathways during nervous system development. See: growth cone collapse. (18 Nov 1997) |
| gram-molecule | <unit> The amount of a substance with a mass in grams equal to its molecular weight; e.g., a gram-molecule of hydrogen weighs 2.016 g, that of water 18.015 g. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chimeric molecule | A molecule (usually a biopolymer) containing sequences derived from two different genes; specifically, from two different species. Compare: chimera. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecule | <chemistry> The result of two or more atoms combining by chemical bonding. (09 Oct 1997) |
| hybrid molecule | <molecular biology> A double-stranded nucleic acid molecule which was artificially created from two different single-stranded nucleic acid molecules from different sources, for the purpose of comparing their nucleotide sequences. (09 Oct 1997) |
| hydrophilic signaling molecule | <molecular biology> A type of molecule which, because it is easily dissolved in water (it is hydrophilic), can easily move through cell membranes and thus can be secreted from one cell and move into a target cell where it triggers a particular event. Many hormones and growth factors are hydrophilic signaling molecules. (09 Oct 1997) |
| neural cell adhesion molecule | See: NCAM. (18 Nov 1997) |
| intercellular adhesion molecule | See: ICAM. (18 Nov 1997) |
| intercellular adhesion molecule-1 | <chemical> A cell-surface ligand with a role in leukocyte adhesion and inflammation. Its production is induced by gamma-interferon and it is required for neutrophil migration into inflamed tissue. Chemical name: Glycoprotein ICAM 1 (human clone pHRVr1 deblocked protein moiety reduced) (12 Dec 1998) |
