Gene name

LGALS2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

HL14

Description

Lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

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.
