Mannose‐binding lectin from champedak ( Artocarpus integer ) is a homotetramer with a single‐monomer molecular weight of 16 800 Da. Previous work has shown it to bind IgE and IgM, as well as being a mitogen of T cells in humans. Champedak mannose‐binding lectin has successfully been used to detect altered glycosylation states of serum proteins. The protein was crystallized at 293 K in space group P 2 1 2 1 2 1 (unit‐cell parameters a = 76.89, b  = 86.22, c = 95.37 Å) and the crystals diffracted to 2.0 Å resolution.
