cDNA cloning, molecular modeling and docking calculations of L-type lectins from Swartzia simplex var. grandiflora (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae), a member of the tribe Swartzieae

The genus Swartzia is a member of the tribe Swartzieae, whose genera constitute the living descendants of one of the early branches of the papilionoid legumes. Legume lectins comprise one of the main families of structurally and evolutionarily related carbohydrate-binding proteins of plant origin. H...

description The genus Swartzia is a member of the tribe Swartzieae, whose genera constitute the living descendants of one of the early branches of the papilionoid legumes. Legume lectins comprise one of the main families of structurally and evolutionarily related carbohydrate-binding proteins of plant origin. However, these proteins have been poorly investigated in Swartzia and to date, only the lectin from S. laevicarpa seeds (SLL) has been purified. Moreover, no sequence information is known from lectins of any member of the tribe Swartzieae. In the present study, partial cDNA sequences encoding L-type lectins were obtained from developing seeds of S. simplex var. grandiflora. The amino acid sequences of the S. simplex grandiflora lectins (SSGLs) were only averagely related to the known primary structures of legume lectins, with sequence identities not greater than 50–52%. The SSGL sequences were more related to amino acid sequences of papilionoid lectins from members of the tribes Sophoreae and Dalbergieae and from the Cladratis and Vataireoid clades, which constitute with other taxa, the first branching lineages of the subfamily Papilionoideae.
