Canavalia brasiliensis lectin was isolated from the seeds of a Brazilian autochthonous Leguminosae plant. Despite extensive amino acid sequence similarity with Concanavalin A, C. brasiliensis lectin exerts in vitro and in vivo cellular effects that are markedly different from those displayed by Concanavalin A. We have solved the crystal structure of the C. brasiliensis lectin at 3.0 A resolution. The three-dimensional structure of the lectin monomer can be superimposed onto that of Concanavalin A with a root-mean-square deviation for all C alpha atoms of 0.65 A.
