== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LEG3_HUMAN LEG3_HUMAN] Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar epithelial cells during early embryogenesis (By similarity). In the nucleus: acts as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. Involved in acute inflammatory responses including neutrophil activation and adhesion, chemoattraction of monocytes macrophages, opsonization of apoptotic neutrophils, and activation of mast cells.<ref>PMID:15181153</ref> <ref>PMID:19594635</ref> <ref>PMID:19616076</ref>
