Bacteria-Derived Galectin-7 Recombinant Protein Lyophilized from Innovative Research has been recombinantly produced in E.coli. The protein formulation is lyophilized from a 0.2 ?m filtered solution of 20mM PB; 150mM NaCl; pH 7.4. with a purity of > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..

More Details:

• Species: Human
• Target: Galectin-7
• Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..< 1.0 EU per ug as determined by the LAL method.

• Storage Conditions: Lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8? for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20? for 3 months.

The Galectin family of proteins; with specificity for Nacetyllactosamine containing glycoproteins; consists of beta-galactoside binding lectins containing homologous carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs).They also possess hemagglutination activity; which is attributable to their bivalent carbohydrate binding properties. Galectins are active both intracellularly and extracellularly. Although they are localized primarily in the cytoplasm and lack a classical signal peptide; they can be secreted by one or more as yet unidentified non-classical secretory pathways. They have diverse effects on many cellular functions including adhesion; migration; polarity; chemotaxis; proliferation; apoptosis; and differentiation. Galectins may play a key role in many pathological states; including autoimmune diseases; allergic reactions; inflammation; tumor cell metastasis; atherosclerosis; and diabetic complications.
