A summary of some of the types of carbohydrate-recognition domains that are found in a wide range of species. Other types of domain not shown are expressed only in more restricted groups of organisms. For example, galectins, siglecs and C-type lectins are expressed only in animals and several classes of adhesins are specific to bacteria.
