About Lgals7

Summary

Predicted to enable carbohydrate binding activity and galactoside binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell proliferation; negative regulation of interferon-gamma production; and positive regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in maxillary process and upper jaw. Orthologous to several human genes including LGALS7 (Galectin 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
