PA-IIL

Anne Imberty: /* Carbohydrate ligands */

PA-IIL (Pseudomonas lectin II, LecB) is a cytoplasmic lectin produced in ''Pseudomonas aruginosa'' under the control of quorum sensing. It is a virulence factor involved in binding of human tissues such as epithelial lung of cystic fibrosis patients<ref>Imberty, A., Wimmerova, M., Mitchell, E. P. & Gilboa-Garber, N. (2004). Structures of the lectins from Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Insights into molecular basis for host glycan recognition. Microb. Infect. 6, 222-229.</ref>. The role of PA-IIL in pathogenesis has been highlighted, since interfering with PA-IIL binding site reduces the mortality of ''P. aeruginosa'' induced-pneumonia in a murine model<ref>Chemani, C., Imberty, A., de Bentzman, S., Pierre, P., Wimmerová, M., Guery, B. P. & Faure, K. (2009). Role of LecA and LecB lectins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa induced lung injury and effect of carbohydrates ligands. Infect. Immun. 77, 2065-2075.</ref>. The paradigm is unique among glycan-binding proteins (GBPs) in that it contains two cations ions in the carbohydrate binding site that result in unusual high affinity for the carbohydrate target<ref>Loris, R., Tielker, D., Jaeger, K.-E. & Wyns, L.
