Research Abstract	Much protein was nominated by the exhaustive interactome analysis using the protein tip, but the plural members of the galectin (LGALS) family were specific in that. It is molecules group classified in small protein, lectin combined with the galectin to sugar according to the name. It was the LGALS family consisting of the members more than ten kinds, but data indicating the combination with LGALS- 1,2,3,7,8 were provided really this time.
