Lectin-mediated reversible immobilization of human cells into a glycosylated macroporous protein hydrogel as a cell culture matrix

Abstract 3D cell culture is a helpful approach to study cell-cell interaction in a native-like environment, but is often limited due the challenge of retrieving cells from the material. In this study, we present the use of recombinant lectin B, a sugar-binding protein with four binding cavities, to...
