Protein Information
Name LGALS8 (HGNC:6569)
Function Beta-galactoside-binding lectin that acts as a sensor of membrane damage caused by infection and restricts the proliferation of infecting pathogens by targeting them for autophagy (PubMed:22246324, PubMed:28077878). Detects membrane rupture by binding beta-galactoside ligands located on the lumenal side of the endosome membrane; these ligands becoming exposed to the cytoplasm following rupture (PubMed:22246324, PubMed:28077878). Restricts infection by initiating autophagy via interaction with CALCOCO2/NDP52 (PubMed:22246324, PubMed:28077878). Required to restrict infection of bacterial invasion such as S.typhimurium (PubMed:22246324). Also required to restrict infection of Picornaviridae viruses (PubMed:28077878). Has a marked preference for 3'-O-sialylated and 3'-O-sulfated glycans (PubMed:21288902).
Cellular Location Cytoplasmic vesicle. Cytoplasm, cytosol
Tissue Location Ubiquitous. Selective expression by prostate carcinomas versus normal prostate and benign prostatic hypertrophy

Background

This gene encodes a member of the galectin family.Galectins are beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins withconserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The galectins have beenimplicated in many essential functions including development,differentiation, cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix interaction,growth regulation, apoptosis, and RNA splicing. This gene is widelyexpressed in tumoral tissues and seems to be involved inintegrin-like cell interactions. Alternatively spliced transcriptvariants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
