| Primary Identifier | MGI:1316742 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 16858 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable carbohydrate binding activity. Predicted to be involved in apoptotic process. Is active in cornified envelope. Is expressed in maxillary process and upper jaw. Orthologous to human LGALS7 (galectin 7) and LGALS7B (galectin 7B). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased sensitivity to skin UVB irradiation with increased apoptosis and proliferation, and delayed wound healing due to reduced cell migration.
