C1orf41 Discussion

Even though the strcuture showed similarity with galactose oxidase binding domain, the binding site of galactose was not found in c1orf41. This indicates that this protein does not bind to galactose. This protein also lacks the RGD motif that is present in cell adhesion protein hence we can deduce that this protein does not involve in cell adhesion (Bianchet et al., 2002).
