Function

[CONA_CANBR] Glucose/D-mannose specific lectin. Has anti-inflammatory activity in rats. Induces histamine release in mast cells from hamster and rat. Induces lymphocyte proliferation and IFNG production. Shows toxicity against the aquatic snail B.glabrata at concentrations higher than 20 ug/ml.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] ^[6] ^[7]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Diocleinae lectins are highly homologous in their primary structure which features metal binding sites and a carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD). Differences in the biological activity of legume lectins have been widely investigated using hemagglutination inhibition assays, isothermal titration microcalorimetry and co-crystallization with mono- and oligosaccharides. Here we report a new lectin crystal structure (ConBr) extracted from seeds of Canavalia brasiliensis, predict dimannoside binding by docking, identify the alpha-aminobutyric acid (Abu) binding pocket and compare the CRD of ConBr to that of homologous lectins. Based on the hypothesis that the carbohydrate affinity of lectins depends on CRD configuration, the relationship between tridimensional structure and endothelial NO synthase activation was used to clarify differences in biological activity. Our study established a correlation between the position of CRD amino acid side chains and the stimulation of NO release from endothelium.

Structural analysis of ConBr reveals molecular correlation between the carbohydrate recognition domain and endothelial NO synthase activation.,Bezerra EH, Rocha BA, Nagano CS, Bezerra Gde A, Moura TR, Bezerra MJ, Benevides RG, Sampaio AH, Assreuy AM, Delatorre P, Cavada BS Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2011 May 20;408(4):566-70.
