A protocol based on saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR spectra was developed to characterize the binding interactions at an atom level, termed group epitope mapping (GEM). As an example we chose the well-studied system of galactose binding to the 120-kDa

A new theoretical method for free energy calculations is used to compute the absolute binding constants for beta-D-glucose and methyl-beta-D-galactoside to the periplasmic glucose/galactose receptor from Salmonella typhimurium. The computer simulation results agree well with available experimental data and make
Acid hydrolysis of cell wall-rich material from young leaves of the lycophyte Selaginella apoda (L.) Spring yielded substantial amounts of 3-O-methyl-D-galactose (1) in addition to the usual major monosaccharides (glucose, galactose, arabinose, xylose and galacturonic acid). The yield of 1
Mistletoe lectin is a potent biohazard. Lectin activity in the toxic dimer primarily originates from the 2gamma-subdomain (Tyr-site) of the B-subunit. Crystallographic information on lectin-sugar complexes is available only at acidic pH, where lectin activity is low. Thus, we mapped
An arabinogalactan with a high content of 3-O-methyl-D-galactose residues has been isolated from the aerial parts of sage (Salvia officinalis L.). Structural studies of the polymer indicated a beta-1,6-D-galactopyranose backbone in which at least one-third of D-galactopyranosyl residues carries methoxyl
