Two galactose-binding lectins, SL1 and SL2, were isolated from human serum by two-step affinity chromatography on sorbents with immobilized disaccharides Gal beta 1-3GlcNAc beta (Lec) and Fuc alpha 1-2Gal beta (Hdi). The purification degree of the SL1 and SL2 preparations was 4000-6000 times and yields were 6.9 and 4.7 micrograms/ml of serum, respectively. Electrophoresis showed that both lectins are oligomers with molecular masses of about 440 kDa, which are composed of ca. 67 kDa subunits. The carbohydrate specificity of the lectins was assayed by hemagglutination inhibition using mono- and oligosaccharides. Both lectins showed specificity for Gal and GalNAc residues but differed in the interactions with oligosaccharides. In particular, SL1 showed maximum affinity for disaccharide Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta (in the form of 4-nitrophenyl glycoside), 6'-sialyllactose, and disaccharide residues Fuc alpha 1-3Gal beta and Gal alpha 1-3Gal beta, whereas SL2 was specific for GalNAc alpha residue and its derivatives as well as for disaccharide Hdi.

D037161 Galectins A class of animal lectins that bind specifically to beta-galactoside in a calcium-independent manner. Members of this class are distiguished from other lectins by the presence of a conserved carbohydrate recognition domain. The majority of proteins in this class bind to sugar molecules in a sulfhydryl-dependent manner and are often referred to as S-type lectins, however this property is not required for membership in this class.
