Recently, we reported that a recombinant Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius) lectin (rTBL-1) induces apoptosis in colon cancer cell lines and that cytotoxicity was related to differential recognition of β1-6 branched N-glycans. Sequencing analysis an... Read More about Directed Mutagenesis for Arginine Substitution of a Phaseolus acutifolius Recombinant Lectin Disrupts Its Cytotoxic Activity.
