Galectin 6 (GAL6)

[Edit]

LGALS6; Lectin,Galactoside-Binding Soluble 6

Galectin 6 (GAL6)
galectin-6, lacks a 24-amino acid stretch in the link region between the two CRDs that is present in galectin-4. Otherwise, these two galectins have 83% amino acid identity.
Expression of both galectin-4 and galectin-6 is confined to the epithelial cells of the embryonic and adult gastrointestinal tract. Galectin-4 is expressed at about equal levels in colon and small intestine but much less in stomach, whereas galectin-6 is expressed at about equal levels throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

Organism species: Mus musculus (Mouse)
