- 2020/04/19, Lectin Purification and Analysis, Methods in Molecular Biology, High mannose (HM)-binding Oscillatoria agardhii agglutinin homologue (OAAH) lectin family is an important class of anti-viral proteins. The OAAH family lectins show potent anti-influenza virus activity with EC50 of nanomolar levels by binding to HM glycans of the envelope glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA), thereby inhibiting the viral entry into host cells. No broadly effective neutralizing vaccines for influenza virus are available due to the frequent antigenic drift caused by rapid mutations. Alternatives for vaccines need to be developed to prepare for a possible risk of future emergence of a highly virulent virus. Possible use of antiviral lectins is a simple and useful strategy to prevent viral infection by interfering with the interaction between viral HA and the host sialic acid-containing receptor. High-density glycans of surface HA are primary targets for the lectins to inhibit viral entry. In general, the anti-influenza virus potency of lectins is evaluated by a series of inhibitory assays for infection, such as neutral red dye uptake assay to determine the extent of viral cytopathic effect, and immunofluorescence microscopy to detect the expression of viral proteins in infected cells. Direct interaction between lectins and HA could be evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or surface plasmon resonance analysis., The OAAH Family: Anti-Influenza Virus Lectins, Lectin Anti-virus, Humana Press, 2020, 4月, Scholarly Book, Joint work, E, Yuichiro Sato, Makoto Hirayama, Kinjiro Morimoto and Kanji Hori, 978-1-0716-0430-4, 693, 683-693
