Galectin-3 Human Recombinant ( LGALS3 Human )

Data sheet

Formulation

The Galectin-3 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4 and 3mM DTT.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized LGALS3 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 97.0% as determined by analysis by SDS-PAGE and HPLC.

Description

LGALS3 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 249 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 26kDa.The LGALS3 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

Galectin-3 mediates with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by cspg4 of endothelial cells migration. Galectin-3 plays an necessary part during the acquisition of vasculogenic mimicry and angiogenic properties associated with melanoma progression

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability

Lyophilized Galectin-3 Recombinant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Galectin-3 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is
