Abstract

Animal leguminous-type (L-type) lectins, including ERGIC-53 and VIP36 are responsible for intracellular transport and quality control of N-linked glycoproteins in the early secretory pathway. These lectins possess the carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD), which recognizes high-mannose-type glycans in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here we describe the procedures involved in bacterial overproduction and purification of the CRDs of the animal L-type lectins.
