== Function ==
[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 ==
Human galectins are promising targets for cancer immunotherapeutic and fibrotic disease-related drugs. We report herein the binding interactions of three thio-digalactosides (TDGs) including TDG itself, TD139 (3,3'-deoxy-3,3'-bis-(4-[m-fluorophenyl]-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-thio-digalactosid e, recently approved for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis), and TAZTDG (3-deoxy-3-(4-[m-fluorophenyl]-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-thio-digalactoside) with human galectins-1, -3 and -7 as assessed by X-ray crystallography, isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR spectroscopy. Five binding subsites (A-E) make up the carbohydrate-recognition domains of these galectins. We identified novel interactions between an arginine within subsite E of the galectins and an arene group in the ligands. In addition to the interactions contributed by the galactosyl sugar residues bound at subsites C and D, the fluorophenyl group of TAZTDG preferentially bound to subsite B in galectin-3, whereas the same group favored binding at subsite E in galectins-1 and -7. The characterised dual binding modes demonstrate how binding potency, reported as decreased Kd values of the TDG inhibitors from muM to nM, is improved and also offer insights to development of selective inhibitors for individual galectins.

Dual thio-digalactoside-binding modes of human galectins as the structural basis for the design of potent and selective inhibitors.,Hsieh TJ, Lin HY, Tu Z, Lin TC, Wu SC, Tseng YY, Liu FT, Hsu ST, Lin CH Sci Rep. 2016 Jul 15;6:29457. doi: 10.1038/srep29457. PMID:27416897<ref>PMID:27416897</ref>
