LGALS2

Lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 2, also known as LGALS2, is a human gene.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: LGALS2 lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 2| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=3957| accessdate = ]

PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = The protein encoded by this gene is a soluble beta-galactoside binding lectin. The encoded protein is found as a homodimer and can bind to lymphotoxin-alpha. A single nucleotide polymorphism in an intron of this gene can alter the transcriptional level of the protein, with a resultant increased risk of myocardial infarction.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: LGALS2 lectin, galactoside-binding, soluble, 2| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=3957| accessdate = ]
