Background
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],function:This protein binds beta-galactoside. Its physiological function is not yet known.,online information:Galectin-2,similarity:Contains 1 galectin domain.,subunit:Homodimer.,
