Bioinformation

Gene Symbol LGALS7
Gene Full Name lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 7
Background The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Differential and in situ hybridization studies indicate that this lectin is specifically expressed in keratinocytes and found mainly in stratified squamous epithelium. A duplicate copy of this gene (GeneID:653499) is found adjacent to, but on the opposite strand on chromosome 19. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Could be involved in cell-cell and/or cell-matrix interactions necessary for normal growth control. Pro-apoptotic protein that functions intracellularly upstream of JNK activation and cytochrome c release. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Secreted. Note=May be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway. [UniProt]
