Summary: Predicted to enable galactoside binding activity and lactose binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell proliferation; positive regulation of T cell apoptotic process; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to several human genes including LGALS9 (galectin 9); LGALS9B (galectin 9B); and LGALS9C (galectin 9C).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
