Abstract
⺠This is the first crystal structure of mammalian β-prism fold lectin, ZG16p. ⺠The crystal structure of ZG16b, a paralog of ZG16p, has also been solved to be β-prism fold. ⺠Glycerol binding and surface electric potential of ZG16p account for its binding preference towards mannose/glucose-type glycans and glycosaminoglycans.
