Also known as GAL1, GBP, galectin 1
Galectin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS1 gene.
The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. This gene product may act as an autocrine negative growth factor that regulates cell proliferation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
