About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for LGALS3:
This gene encodes a member of the galectin family of carbohydrate binding proteins. Members of this protein family have
an affinity for beta-galactosides. The encoded protein is characterized by an N-terminal proline-rich tandem repeat
domain and a single C-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain. This protein can self-associate through the N-terminal
domain allowing it to bind to multivalent saccharide ligands. This protein localizes to the extracellular matrix, the
cytoplasm and the nucleus. This protein plays a role in numerous cellular functions including apoptosis, innate
immunity, cell adhesion and T-cell regulation. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.(provided by
RefSeq, Apr 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: LEG3_HUMAN, P17931
Function: Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by
CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar
epithelial cells during early embryogenesis (By similarity). In the nucleus: acts as a pre-mRNA splicing factor.
Involved in acute inflammatory responses including neutrophil activation and adhesion, chemoattraction of monocytes
macrophages, opsonization of apoptotic neutrophils, and activation of mast cells
