Background	This gene encodes a member of the galectin family. Galectins are beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The galectins have been implicated in many essential functions including development; differentiation; cell-cell adhesion; cell-matrix interaction; growth regulation; apoptosis; and RNA splicing. This gene is widely expressed in tumoral tissues and seems to be involved in integrin-like cell interactions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.?
Synonyms	Gal-8; PCTA-1; PCTA1; Po66-CBP
