A Truncated Galectin-3 Isolated from Skin Mucus of Atlantic Salmon <i>Salmo salar</i> Binds to and Modulates the Proteome of the Gram-Negative Bacteria <i>Moritella viscosa</i>

The mucus of fish skin plays a vital role in innate immune defense. Some mucus proteins have the potential to incapacitate pathogens and/or inhibit their passage through the skin. In this study the aim was to isolate and characterize galectin(s), &#946;-galactosides binding proteins, present in...
