| Primary Identifier | IPR030651 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | Galectin-rel |
| description | Galectin relatives such as lens crystalline protein GRIFIN and the galectin-related protein HSPC159, have been identified. They are characterised by significant sequence deviations at the most critical residues for carbohydrate-binding, leading to lack of beta-galactosides binding activity.Galectin-related protein (GRP), previously known as HSPC159, does not bind lactose, and may not bind carbohydrates. Its function remains unclear [, ]. |
