The multifunctionality of galectins helps regulate a broad range of fundamental cellular processes via cis-binding and trans-bridging activities and has gained widespread attention with respect to the importance of the natural specificity/selectivity of this lectin family to its glycoconjugate receptors. Combining galectin (Gal)-1, -3, -4, and -9 variant test panels, achieved via rational protein engineering, and a synthetic a-dystroglycan (DG) O-Mannosylated core M1 glycopeptide library, a detailed comparative analysis was performed, utilizing microarray experiments to delineate the design-functionality relationships within this lectin family. Enhancement of prototype Gal-1 and chimera-type Gal-3 cis-binding toward the prepared ligands is possible by transforming these lectins into tandem-repeat type and prototypes, respectively. Furthermore, Gal-1 variants demonstrated improved trans-bridging capabilities between core M1 a-DG glycopeptides and laminins in microarray, suggesting the possible translational applications of these galectin variants in the treatment of some forms of a-dystroglycanopathy.
