galactose/rhamnose binding lectin domain found in Caenorhabditis elegans latrophilin-like protein 2 (LAT2) and similar proteins
LAT2 may have a role in pharyngeal pumping during feeding. It contains a galactose/rhamnose binding lectin domain at the N-terminal region. Due to the lack of rhamnose-binding key residues, the galactose/rhamnose-binding domains of LAT2 does not form a binding pocket for rhamnose. Therefore, LAT2 is unlikely to act as a rhamnose-binding lectin.
