| UniProt functional annotation for P02866 | |||
| UniProt code: P02866. |
| Organism: | Canavalia ensiformis (Jack bean) (Dolichos ensiformis). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; fabids; Fabales; Fabaceae; Papilionoideae; 50 kb inversion clade; NPAAA clade; indigoferoid/millettioid clade; Phaseoleae; Canavalia. | |
| Function: | D-mannose specific lectin. | |
| Subunit: | Homotetramer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2792084}. | |
| Ptm: | The mature chain consists of residues 164-281 followed by 30-148. To form a mature chain the precursor undergoes further post- translational modification after removal of the signal sequence; cleavage after Asn at positions 148, 163, and 281 is followed by transposition and ligation (By formation of a new peptide bond) of residues 164-281 and 30-148. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Binds one manganese (or another transition metal) ion and one calcium ion. The metal ions are essential for the saccharide- binding and cell-agglutinating activities. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the leguminous lectin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
