Nanomolar inhibitor of the galectin-8 N-terminal domain binds via a non-canonical cation-π interaction

Abstract Galectin-8 is a tandem-repeat galectin consisting of two distinct carbohydrate recognition domains and is a potential drug target. We have developed a library of galectin-8N inhibitors that exhibit high nanomolar K d values as determined by a competitive fluorescence polarization assay. A d...
