About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for LGALS7: The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrixinteractions. Differential and in situ hybridization studies indicate that this lectin is specifically expressed inkeratinocytes and found mainly in stratified squamous epithelium. A duplicate copy of this gene (GeneID:653499) isfound adjacent to, but on the opposite strand on chromosome 19. (provided by RefSeq) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: LEG7_HUMAN, P47929Function: 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 Gene Wiki entry for LGALS7 |
