Fucosylated glycans on pathogens are known to shape the immune response through their
interaction with pattern recognition receptors, such as C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), on
dendritic cells (DCs). Similar fucosylated structures are also commonly found in a variety of
allergens, but their functional significance remains unclear. To test a hypothesis that
allergen-associated glycans serve as the molecular patterns in functional interaction with
CLRs, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based binding assay was performed to …
