A lectin was isolated from the fruiting bodies of Pholiota aurivella by preparative PAGE and named
PAA
(Pholiota aurivella agglutinin).
PAA
was a polymeric protein of more than several hundred kDa consisting of 18-kDa subunits. The amino acids were sequenced from the N-terminus of the lectin; they were YSVTTPNSVKGGTNQG.
PAA
agglutinated human erythrocytes regardless of blood type equally and
Pronase
treatment of erythrocytes increased the sensitivity to agglutination by the lectin. In a hemaggluting inhibition assay, none of the mono-and oligosaccharides used affected agglutination by the lectin. Among glycoproteins, asialofetuin was the best inhibitor. This is first isolated and characterized lectin from the family Strophariaceae.
