X-RAY CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF R111H HUMAN GALECTIN-1

Overview

Human galectin-1 is a potent multifunctional effector that participates in, specific protein-carbohydrate and protein-protein (lipid) interactions. By, determining its X-ray structure, we provide the basis to define the, structure of its ligand-binding pocket and to perform rational drug, design. We have also analysed whether single-site mutations introduced at, some distance from the carbohydrate recognition domain can affect the, lectin fold and influence sugar binding. Both the substitutions introduced, in the C2S and R111H mutants altered the presentation of the loop, harbouring Asp123 in the common "jelly-roll" fold. The orientation of the, side-chain was inverted 180 degrees and the positions of two key residues, in the sugar-binding site of the R111H mutant were notably shifted, ... [(full description)]
