A lectin produced by a Streptomyces species targets mammalian pancreatic acinar cells in mice and humans

Abstract Lectins are produced in almost all life forms, can interact with targets (glycans) in a cross-kingdom manner and have served as valuable tools for studying glycobiology. Previously, a bacterial lectin, named Streptomyces hemagglutinin (SHA), was found to agglutinate human type B erythrocyte...
