Figure 3. Bacterial structural database provides new bacterial targets for galectin binding and killing.
(a) Schematic representation of glycan structures on the glycan array paired with similar structures found on indicated bacterial strains. (b) Flow cytometric analysis of K. pneumoniae O1 (KP O1) after incubation with ~0.1µM Gal-8 with or without inclusion of 20mM TDG. Quantification of KP O1 after addition of 5µM Gal-3 (c), Gal-4 (d) or Gal-8 (e) with or without addition of 50mM TDG or sucrose (Sucr). n=2–3 in 1 representative experiment of 3; error bars represent means ± 1 s.d.
