Journal ArticleDOI
Galectins: their network and roles in immunity/tumor growth control
Herbert Kaltner,Stefan Toegel,Gabriel García Caballero,Joachim C. Manning,Robert W. Ledeen,Hans-Joachim Gabius +5 more
TL;DR: To delineate the factors that underlie the specificity of a galectin for its counterreceptor(s) in the cellular context and the details of structure–activity relationships by comparatively analyzing natural and rationally engineered proteins is the main challenge for ongoing research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lectins: a primer for histochemists and cell biologists.
Joachim C. Manning,Antonio Romero,Felix A. Habermann,Gabriel García Caballero,Herbert Kaltner,Hans-Joachim Gabius +5 more
TL;DR: The functional pairing with physiological counterreceptors is involved in a wide range of cellular activities from cell adhesion, glycoconjugate trafficking to growth regulation and lets lectins act as sensors/effectors in host defense.
Journal ArticleDOI
From glycophenotyping by (plant) lectin histochemistry to defining functionality of glycans by pairing with endogenous lectins
Herbert Kaltner,Gabriel García Caballero,Anna-Kristin Ludwig,Joachim C. Manning,Hans-Joachim Gabius +4 more
TL;DR: The detection of mammalian (tissue) lectins and the emerging evidence for intimate molecular recognition between this class of receptors and their (glycoconjugate) counterreceptors substantiate that understanding the rules of the sugar code is presently a major challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI
How galectins have become multifunctional proteins.
Gabriel García Caballero,Herbert Kaltner,Tanja J Kutzner,Anna-Kristin Ludwig,Joachim C. Manning,Sebastian Schmidt,Fred Sinowatz,Hans-Joachim Gabius +7 more
TL;DR: The generation of a network of (GA)lectins by evolutionary diversification affords the opportunity for additive/synergistic or antagonistic interplay in situ, an emerging aspect of (ga)lectin functionality that warrants close scrutiny.
Journal ArticleDOI
Network analysis of adhesion/growth-regulatory galectins and their binding sites in adult chicken retina and choroid
Joachim C. Manning,Gabriel García Caballero,Clemens Knospe,Herbert Kaltner,Hans-Joachim Gabius +4 more
TL;DR: The highly ordered multilayered organization of the adult chicken retina is a suitable test model for examining zonal distribution of the members of a bioeffector family and the results underline the requirement for network analysis for these proteins that can functionally interact in additive or antagonistic modes.
