Identification and characterisation of lectins in several tick species
Original language description
FReD (fibrinogen-related domain) proteins are lectins with possible functions in immunity of invertebrates. Several FReD proteins were detected using antibodies directed against Dorin M, Ixodes ricinus hemolymph lectin, and hemagglutination acitivity ofO. moubata and I. ricinus ticks. All identified FReD proteins are modified by truncated high-mannose glycans. Hemagglutination activity of hemolymph of the studied ticks was inhibited predominantly by N-acetylhexosamines and sialoglycoproteins. All tickspecies contained a hemelipoglycoprotein-like protein. Nucleotide sequence of novel protein containing fibrinogen- related domain was identified in ticks of species D. marginatus, Haemaphysalis punctata, and Hyalomma impeltatus. FReD proteins of D. marginatus localised in hemocytes, salivary glands, and gut cells.
