'''X-RAY CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN GALECTIN-3 CARBOHYDRATE RECOGNITION DOMAIN (CRD) AT 2.1 ANGSTROM RESOLUTION'''
===X-RAY CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN GALECTIN-3 CARBOHYDRATE RECOGNITION DOMAIN (CRD) AT 2.1 ANGSTROM RESOLUTION===




==Overview==
<!--
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. We report here the x-ray crystal structure of the human galectin-3 CRD, in complex with lactose and N-acetyllactosamine, at 2.1-A resolution. This structure represents the first example of a CRD determined from a galectin which does not show the canonical 2-fold symmetric dimer organization. Comparison with the published structures of galectins-1 and -2 provides an explanation for the differences in carbohydrate-binding specificity shown by galectin-3, and for the fact that it fails to form dimers by analogous CRD-CRD interactions.
The line below this paragraph, {{ABSTRACT_PUBMED_9582341}}, adds the Publication Abstract to the page
(as it appears on PubMed at http://www.pubmed.gov), where 9582341 is the PubMed ID number.
