Predicted to enable galactoside binding activity. Located in membrane raft. Is an ortholog of human LGALS9 (galectin 9); LGALS9B (galectin 9B); and LGALS9C (galectin 9C).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
