abstract = {Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a prevalent opportunistic human
pathogen, particularly associated with cystic fibrosis.
Among its virulence factors are the LecA and LecB lectins.
Both lectins play an important role in the adhesion to the
host cells and display cytotoxic activity. In this study, we
successfully synthesized hardly hydrolysable carbohydrate
ligands targeting these pathogenic lectins, including two
bispecific glycans. The interactions between LecA/LecB
lectins and synthetic glycans were evaluated using
hemagglutination (yeast agglutination) inhibition assays,
comparing their efficacy with corresponding monosaccharides.
Additionally, the binding affinities of bispecific glycans
were assessed using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC).
Structural insight into the lectin-ligand interaction was
obtained by determining the crystal structures of LecA/LecB
lectins in complex with one of the bispecific ligands using
X ray crystallography. This comprehensive investigation into
the inhibitory potential of synthetic glycosides against P.
aeruginosa lectins sheds light on their potential
application in antimicrobial therapy.},
