Enables

This protein enables 4 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
RNA bindingmolecular functionBinding to an RNA molecule or a portion thereof. [GOC:jl, GOC:mah]
protein bindingmolecular functionBinding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
laminin bindingmolecular functionBinding to a laminin, a major glycoprotein constituent of the basement membrane of cells. [GOC:ecd]
lactose bindingmolecular functionBinding to lactose, a disaccharide of glucose and galactose, the carbohydrate of milk. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0192800981]

Located In

This protein is located in 7 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
extracellular regioncellular componentThe space external to the outermost structure of a cell. For cells without external protective or external encapsulating structures this refers to space outside of the plasma membrane. This term covers the host cell environment outside an intracellular parasite. [GOC:go_curators]
extracellular spacecellular componentThat part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid. [ISBN:0198547684]
cytoplasmcellular componentThe contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. [ISBN:0198547684]
endoplasmic reticulum lumencellular componentThe volume enclosed by the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum. [ISBN:0198547684]
cytosolcellular componentThe part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl]
collagen-containing extracellular matrixcellular componentAn extracellular matrix consisting mainly of proteins (especially collagen) and glycosaminoglycans (mostly as proteoglycans) that provides not only essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents but can also initiate crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues required for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation and homeostasis. The components are secreted by cells in the vicinity and form a sheet underlying or overlying cells such as endothelial and epithelial cells. [GOC:BHF, GOC:rph, PMID:21123617]
extracellular exosomecellular componentA vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm. [GOC:BHF, GOC:mah, GOC:vesicles, PMID:15908444, PMID:17641064, PMID:19442504, PMID:19498381, PMID:22418571, PMID:24009894]

Part Of

TargetCategoryDefinition
galectin complexcellular componentA homodimeric protein complex that is capable of binding a range of carbohydrates and is involved in anti-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic processes. [GOC:bhm, PMID:15476813, PMID:18777589, PMID:8262940]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 10 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
plasma cell differentiationbiological processThe process in which a B cell acquires the specialized features of a plasma cell. A plasma cell is a lymphocyte which develops from a B cell and produces high amounts of antibody. [GOC:jal]
apoptotic processbiological processA programmed cell death process which begins when a cell receives an internal (e.g. DNA damage) or external signal (e.g. an extracellular death ligand), and proceeds through a series of biochemical events (signaling pathway phase) which trigger an execution phase. The execution phase is the last step of an apoptotic process, and is typically characterized by rounding-up of the cell, retraction of pseudopodes, reduction of cellular volume (pyknosis), chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation (karyorrhexis), plasma membrane blebbing and fragmentation of the cell into apoptotic bodies. When the execution phase is completed, the cell has died. [GOC:cjm, GOC:dhl, GOC:ecd, GOC:go_curators, GOC:mtg_apoptosis, GOC:tb, ISBN:0198506732, PMID:18846107, PMID:21494263]
T cell costimulationbiological processThe process of providing, via surface-bound receptor-ligand pairs, a second, antigen-independent, signal in addition to that provided by the T cell receptor to augment T cell activation. [ISBN:0781735149]
regulation of apoptotic processbiological processAny process that modulates the occurrence or rate of cell death by apoptotic process. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_apoptosis]
positive regulation of apoptotic processbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_apoptosis]
positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transductionbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a canonical NF-kappaB signaling cascade. [GOC:jl]
myoblast differentiationbiological processThe process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a myoblast. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into striated muscle fibers. [CL:0000056, GOC:go_curators, GOC:mtg_muscle]
positive regulation of viral entry into host cellbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the introduction of viral entry into the host cell. [GOC:jl]
positive regulation of inflammatory responsebiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the inflammatory response. [GOC:ai]
cell-cell adhesionbiological processThe attachment of one cell to another cell via adhesion molecules. [GOC:dos]
