== Function of your Protein == the protein Epa1ACBL2Epa9–Galb1-4Glc is from Candida glabrata, which is a human fungal pathogen. . The protein is a receptor. It interacts with calcium ions, chloride ions, and sodium ions.

== Biological relevance and broader implications == The protein is associated with the fungus Candida Glabrata. It is a natural yeast fungus that, if it enters the bloodstream, can have life-threatening complications for people with suppressed or weakened immune systems. The protein is important to study because it can help to determine how diverse structural hot spots effect host cell binding and ligand binding specificity.

== Important amino acids == the ligands play a vital role in the protein because they give signals that determine the specificity of how the protein binds.

the protein lacks a cataytic triad as it is a lectin and lacks enzymatic activity

== Structural highlights == The macromolecule content of the protein shows that it has a total structure weight of 29.92 kDa, the residue count is 232, and it has one unique protein chain., The A chains of the protein has a sequence length of 262. The protein has 4 helices. There are 14 parts to the beta strand. the ligands each bind to the protein through ionic bonding. there are three unit cell lengths, a's is 74.22, b's is 104.14 and c's is 69.09. all have an angle of 90 degrees.
