== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/HGL1_ENTH1 HGL1_ENTH1] Lectin which binds galactose and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine of host glycoproteins and thus mediates adhesion to host cells (Probable). Mediates adherence to host colonic mucins, an essential step for pathogenic tissue invasion (Probable).<ref>PMID:12142490</ref>
