Modulation of CD6 function through interaction with Galectin-1 and -3.
Published in FEBS Letters
CD6 is a lymphocyte glycoprotein receptor that physically associates with the antigen-specific receptor complex at the center of the immunological synapse, where it interacts with its ligand CD166/ALCAM. The present work reports the carbohydrate-dependent interaction of CD6 and CD166/ALCAM with Galectin-1 and -3, two well-known soluble mammalian le...
