Lectican family of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. Lecticans are a class of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) including Aggrecan, Versican, Neurocan, and Brevican. All lecticans have a G1-domain which is a conserved binding site to hyaluronan, the central GAG attachment domain, and a lectin-containing G3 domain mediating the binding to glycoproteins such as tenascins.
