From: Extensive variation in the intelectin gene family in laboratory and wild mouse strains
Comparison of the calcium- and glycan-binding regions of mouse and human intelectins. The aligned partial amino acid sequences of human and mice intelectins are shown (amino acid residue numbering from human ITLN1). Amino acids previously shown2 to mediate calcium coordination are shown in blue and those mediating glycan binding highlighted with yellow. Residues identical to those previously shown to bind carbohydrate in human ITLN1 are shown in black within the yellow background and the polymorphic amino acids are shown in red.
