Natural Lectin Production Service at CD BioGlyco
Natural lectins are non-enzymatic proteins found widely in plants, fungi, and animals. They recognize and bind sugar chain structures and participate in various biological processes such as cell recognition, signal transduction, and immune response.

CD BioGlyco provides production services for plant lectins, fungal lectins, animal lectins, and their related customized services. The isolation and purification of natural lectins usually adopt the following steps.
- Extraction of natural materials: First break plant tissues, fungal cells, or animal tissues into small pieces. Then add an appropriate amount of buffer and stir evenly. The extract is obtained by filtration.
- Preliminary purification: The extract is initially purified by filtration, ultrafiltration, ion exchange, and other methods.
- Chromatography: The initially purified sample is further separated by gel chromatography, and different lectins are separated according to their molecular weight. The gel chromatography-purified sample is subjected to affinity chromatography with carbohydrate chains or polysaccharides to further purify the lectins.
- Spectral analysis: Structural analysis of the purified lectin is carried out through the spectral analysis method.

Fungal Lectin Production Service
Combined with a multi-biology platform and the support of specialized staff, CD BioGlyco offers several fungal lectin production services.
Applications of Natural Lectin
- Natural lectin is used to develop new virus detection methods because it recognizes the sugar chain structure on the virus surface.
- Natural lectin recognizes and binds to the sugar chain structure on the surface of nerve cells, which helps study the growth, migration, and signal transduction of nerve cells.
- Natural lectin recognizes the glycan chain structure on the surface of tumor cells and helps study the biological characteristics of tumor cells.
- Natural lectin is used in the preparation of biomaterials to improve the biocompatibility and other properties of biomaterials.
