[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LEG3_HUMAN LEG3_HUMAN] Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar epithelial cells during early embryogenesis (By similarity). In the nucleus: acts as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. Involved in acute inflammatory responses including neutrophil activation and adhesion, chemoattraction of monocytes macrophages, opsonization of apoptotic neutrophils, and activation of mast cells.<ref>PMID:15181153</ref> <ref>PMID:19594635</ref> <ref>PMID:19616076</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Multipolar fluorine-amide interactions with backbone and side-chain amides have been described as important for protein-ligand interactions and have been used to improve the potency of synthetic inhibitors. In this study, fluorine interactions within a well-defined binding pocket on galectin-3 are investigated systematically using phenyltriazolyl-thiogalactosides fluorinated singly or multiply at different positions on the phenyl ring. X-ray structures of the C-terminal domain of galectin-3 in complex with eight of these ligands revealed potential orthogonal fluorine-amide interactions with backbone amides and one with a side-chain amide. The two interactions involving main chain amides seem to have a strong influence on affinity as determined by fluorescence anisotropy. In contrast, the interaction with the side-chain amide did not influence affinity. Quantum mechanics calculations were used to analyse the relative contributions of these interactions to the binding energies. No clear correlation could be found between the relative energies of the fluorine-main chain amide interactions and the overall binding energy. Instead, dispersion and desolvation effects play a larger role. The results confirm that the contribution of fluorine-amide interactions to protein-ligand interactions cannot simply be predicted, on geometrical considerations alone, but require careful consideration of the energetic components.
