Crystal structure of Galectin-1 in the lactose-unbound state(P21)
Function
[LEG1_HUMAN] May regulate apoptosis, cell proliferation and cell differentiation. Binds beta-galactoside and a wide array of complex carbohydrates. Inhibits CD45 protein phosphatase activity and therefore the dephosphorylation of Lyn kinase.[1] [2]
About this Structure
3w58 is a 4 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
