1 Human DC-SIGN binds specific human milk glycans. Polysaccharides CD209 molecule Homo sapiens
2 Unexpectedly, DC-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN) showed robust binding to many HMGs, whereas other C-type lectins failed to bind, and Siglec-5 and Siglec-9 showed weak binding to a few glycans. Polysaccharides CD209 molecule Homo sapiens
3 Unexpectedly, DC-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN) showed robust binding to many HMGs, whereas other C-type lectins failed to bind, and Siglec-5 and Siglec-9 showed weak binding to a few glycans. Polysaccharides CD209 molecule Homo sapiens
4 Binding of DC-SIGN to the simple HMGs 2"-fucosyl-lactose (2"-FL) and 3-fucosyl-lactose (3-FL) was confirmed by flow cytometry to beads conjugated with 2"-FL or 3-FL, as well as the ability of the free glycans to inhibit DC-SIGN binding. Polysaccharides CD209 molecule Homo sapiens
