Galectin-3 is the only member in the chimera type, which is monomeric lectin with one CRD domain. A growing body of evidence have indicated vital roles of galectin-3 in innate immune responses against infection. Here, one galectin-3 gene was captured in turbot (SmLgals3) contains a 1203 bp open reading frame (ORF). In comparison to other species, SmLgals3 showed the highest similarity and identity to large yellow croaker and medaka, respectively. The genomic structure analysis showed that SmLgals3 h...
