A new type of lectin discovered in a fish, flathead (Platycephalus indicus), suggests an alternative functional role for mammalian plasma kallikrein(*)

A skin mucus lectin exhibiting a homodimeric structure and an S–S bond between subunits of ∼40 kDa was purified from flathead Platycephalus indicus (Scorpaeniformes). This lectin, named FHL (FlatHead Lectin), exhibited mannose-specific activity in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Although FHL showed no ho...
