Protein Summary
Binds galactosides. This gene was initially thought to represent a pseudogene of galectin 9; however, this transcript has good exon-intron structure and encodes a predicted protein of the same size as and highly similar to galectin 9. This gene is one of two similar loci on chromosome 17p similar to galectin 9 and now thought to be protein-encoding. This gene is the more telomeric gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

IDG Development Level Summary
These are targets about which virtually nothing is known. They do not have known drug or small molecule activities
- AND - satisfy two or more of the following criteria:
Pubmed score: 2.79 (req: < 5)
Gene RIFs: 2 (req: <= 3)
Antibodies: 73 (req: <= 50)
These targets do not have known drug or small molecule activities
- AND - satisfy two or more of the following criteria:
Pubmed score: 2.79 (req: >= 5)
Gene RIFs: 2 (req: > 3)
Antibodies: 73 (req: > 50)
