Galectins are a family of lectins which share similar carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) and affinity for small beta-galactosides, but which show significant differences in binding specificity for more complex glycoconjugates.

This structure represents the first example of a CRD determined from a galectin which does not show the canonical 2-fold symmetric dimer organization.
