The Double Face of Mucin-Type O-Glycans in Lectin-Mediated Infection and Immunity
Epithelial human blood group antigens (HBGAs) on O-glycans play roles in pathogen binding and the initiation of infection, while similar structures on secretory mucins exert protective functions. These double-faced features of O-glycans in infection and innate immunity are reviewed based on two inst...
