Description

Galectin 1 (human) Recombinant Protein, RP-8622, from Invitrogen.

Galectin-1 belongs to a large family of carbohydrate-binding proteins called lectins. Galectin-1can be either monomeric or homodimeric and is found in a wide variety of cells and tissue types. Galectin-1 can control cell growth, proliferation, induce apoptosis of activated T cells while it can also modulate cytokine secretion or inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Galectin-1 plays an important role in acute and chronic inflammation. Recombinant human Galectin-1 is a non-glycosylated protein, containing134 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 14.5 kDa. Purity is typically greater than 95% and endotoxin level less than 1 EU/ug. The expected biological activity (ED50) is determined by the ability to induce chemotaxis of human blood monocytes or THP-1 with a typical range of 0.5-3.0 ug/mL. The specific activity of this protein is 2x10^3 units/mg. Reconstitute using sterile water at 0.1mg/mL and centrifuge prior to opening vial. Gently pipet solution down the sides of the vial. DO NOT VORTEX sample. Store reconstituted material at -20°C and add 0.1% BSA for additional stability.
