在最近确定的凝集素的晶体结构中，雪花莲凝集素，jacalin和苋菜红-代表新的凝集素家族。它们的多肽折叠具有非常相似的特征，并且仅由β结构组成。通过假三重对称相互关联的自主折叠的β-折叠子域组装以形成β-棱柱或β-桶结构，其通过疏水核稳定。
Among the crystal structures of lectins determined recently, three — snowdrop lectin, jacalin and amaranthin — represent new lectin families. Their polypeptide folds share remarkably similar features and consist exclusively of β structure. Autonomously folded β-sheet subdomains, inter-related by a pseudothreefold symmetry, assembly to form β-prism or β-barrel structures which are stabilized by a hydrophobic core.
