Journal ArticleDOI
On the frequency of protein glycosylation, as deduced from analysis of the SWISS-PROT database.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the majority of sequon containing proteins will be found to be glycosylated and that more than half of all proteins are glycoproteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Lectins as cell recognition molecules
Nathan Sharon,Halina Lis +1 more
TL;DR: This work has shown thatectins on cell surfaces mediate cell-cell interactions by combining with complementary carbohydrates on apposing cells to form lectins, which play a key role in the control of various normal and pathological processes in living organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
History of lectins: from hemagglutinins to biological recognition molecules
Nathan Sharon,Halina Lis +1 more
TL;DR: A brief account of 100-plus years of lectin research is presented to show how these proteins have become the focus of intense interest for biologists and in particular for the glycobiologists among them.
