Isolation and characterization of a novel lectin from the wild mushroom Xerocomus spadiceus.

Abstract:

:A lectin was isolated from extracts of fruiting bodies of the mushroom Xerocomus spadiceus using a procedure that involved ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on Affi-gel blue gel, ion exchange chromatography on CM-cellulose, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. The lectin was unadsorbed on DEAE-cellulose and Affi-gel blue gel and adsorbed on CM-Sepharose. The lectin was capable of eliciting an approximately four-fold stimulation of mitogenic response in murine splenocytes. The hemagglutinating activity was stable up to 60 degrees C, halved at 70 degrees C, reduced to 25% at 75 degrees C and dwindled to an undetectable level at 80 degrees C. The activity remained unaltered in the presence of various divalent (Ca2+, Mg2+, Zn2+ and Mn2+) chlorides up to a salt concentration of 10 mM except in the case of ZnCl2. FeCl3 up to a concentration of 10 mM did not affect the hemagglutinating activity of the lectin. The hemagglutinating activity of the lectin was doubled in the presence of 5 mM AlCl3 or 10 mM ZnCl2 and quadrupled in the presence of 10 mM AlCl3. The activity was reduced in the presence of HCl and NaOH. Among the large number of carbohydrates tested, only inulin was able to inhibit the hemagglutinating activity of the lectin.
