Structure of a lectin from Canavalia gladiata seeds: new structural insights for old molecules

BACKGROUND: Lectins are mainly described as simple carbohydrate-binding proteins. Previous studies have tried to identify other binding sites, which possible recognize plant hormones, secondary metabolites, and isolated amino acid residues. We report the crystal structure of a lectin isolated from C...
