Structured_description Provisional_descriptionlec-2 encodes a 'tandem repeat' type galectin (beta-galactosyl-binding lectin) containing two, tandemly arranged carbohydrate recognition domains; by homology, LEC-2 may play roles in cell adhesion and aggregation, proliferation, or programmed cell death, but as loss of lec-2 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in obvious abnormalities, the precise role of LEC-2 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known.

RemarkMap 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.CGC_data_submission
