Elucidating the glycan-binding specificity and structure of Cucumis melo agglutinin, a new R-type lectin

Plant lectins have garnered attention for their roles as laboratory probes and potential therapeutics. Here, we report the discovery and characterization of Cucumis melo agglutinin (CMA1), a new R-type lectin from melon. Our findings reveal CMA1’s unique glycan-binding profile, mechanistically expla...
