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.

[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>
