New cards

lectins

receptor proteins that recognize particular carbohydrate componenets on microbial cells

  • part of innate immune system (no antibodies)

2
New cards

Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) binds to arrays of __

  • mannose residues on surface of microbial cells

  • acts as PRR

  • consitutively expressed by liver (part of collectins)

3
New cards

microbes recognized by MBL

  • N-acetylglucosamine, D-glucose, and L-fucose polymers

  • salmonella, listeria, neisseria bacteria

  • cryptococcus neoformans and candida albicans fungi

  • HIV-1 and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)

4
New cards

other lectin pathway initiators

collectin-10 & 11

Ficolin 1, 2, and 3

  • all have a common “stalk”

5
New cards

MBl is associated with MBL-ASP (associated serine proteases)
