Endogenous ALCAM from MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells interacts with galectin-8.
Exogenous galectin-8 provokes ALCAM segregation and clustering at the cell surface.
ALCAM from MDA-MB-231 cells has high levels of α(2,6) sialylated glycans.
Galectin-8 and ALCAM are co-expressed in normal and malignant human breast tissues.
