|---|---|---|---|
| GO:0005536 | glucose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the D- or L-enantiomer of glucose. | 64 |
| GO:0048029 | monosaccharide binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any monosaccharide. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates; they are polyhydroxy aldehydes H[CH(OH)]nC(=O)H or polyhydroxy ketones H[CHOH]nC(=O)[CHOH]mH with three or more carbon atoms. They form the constitutional repeating units of oligo- and polysaccharides. | 39 |
| GO:0031418 | L-ascorbic acid binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with L-ascorbic acid, (2R)-2-[(1S)-1,2-dihydroxyethyl]-4-hydroxy-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-olate; L-ascorbic acid is vitamin C and has co-factor and anti-oxidant activities in many species. | 31 |
| GO:0033222 | xylose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the D- or L-enantiomer of xylose. | 25 |
| GO:0010297 | heteropolysaccharide binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with heteropolysaccharides. A heteropolysaccharide is a glycan composed of more than one type of monosaccharide residue. | 21 |
| GO:2001070 | starch binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with starch. | 11 |
| GO:0048032 | galacturonate binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any galacturonate. Galacturonate is the anion of galacturonic acid, the uronic acid formally derived from galactose by oxidation of the hydroxymethylene group at C-6 to a carboxyl group. | 10 |
| GO:0030247 | polysaccharide binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any polysaccharide, a polymer of many (typically more than 10) monosaccharide residues linked glycosidically. | 9 |
| GO:0070061 | fructose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the D- or L-enantiomer of fructose, the ketohexose arabino-hex-2-ulose. | 8 |
| GO:0005537 | mannose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with mannose, a monosaccharide hexose, stereoisomeric with glucose, that occurs naturally only in polymerized forms called mannans. | 5 |
| GO:0001872 | (1->3)-beta-D-glucan binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with (1->3)-beta-D-glucans. | 4 |
| GO:0030248 | cellulose binding | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with cellulose. | 2 |
