Target Details for UDA

Target: UDA (Urtica dioica Agglutinin (UDA))

Background:

Background: Urtica dioica agglutinin (UDA), a monomeric lectin extracted from stinging nettle rhizomes, is specific for saccharides containing N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). The lectin behaves as a superantigen for murine T cells, inducing the exclusive proliferation of lymphocytes. UDA is unique among known T cell superantigens because it can be presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules of both class I and II. Beside that, Urtica lectin extracts are widely used for treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia.
