Superfamily: NPCBM/NEW2 domain

Structural domains comprising this superfamily share the structure of a novel putative carbohydrate-binding module (NPCBM) domain, also known as NEW2 domain. Members of this superfamily appear to have roles in the recognition of host glycans by pathogenic bacteria, in the context of either pathogenesis or colonization, and in the recognition of environmental glycans, perhaps in the classical CBM role of plant cell wall degradation PMID:18292090.
