About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for LGALS2:
The protein encoded by this gene is a soluble beta-galactoside binding lectin. The encoded protein is found as a
homodimer and can bind to lymphotoxin-alpha. A single nucleotide polymorphism in an intron of this gene can alter the
transcriptional level of the protein, with a resultant increased risk of myocardial infarction. (provided by RefSeq,
Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: LEG2_HUMAN, P05162
Function: This protein binds beta-galactoside. Its physiological function is not yet known
