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
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.,induction:By p53.,online information:Galectin-7,similarity:Contains 1 galectin domain.,subcellular location:May be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway.,subunit:Monomer.,tissue specificity:Mainly in stratified squamous epithelium.,
