Product description

Recombinant Human Galectin 9 (C-6His) is a research-use recombinant protein from ELK Biotechnology preparation representing Galectin 9 supplied as Lyophilized. Review the expression, purity, formulation and storage specifications below before selecting it for an assay or functional workflow.

Description

Recombinant Human Galectin 9 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Thr323 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.

Background

Galectin-9 is a cytoplasmic protein that contains two galectin domains. Galectin-9 is an S-type lectin that is over-expressed in Hodgkin's disease tissue. Galectin-9 binds galactosides and has high affinity for the Forssman pentasaccharide. Galectin-9 plays a role in thymocyte-epithelial interactions relevant to the biology of the thymus and Inhibits cell proliferation. Galectin-9 is a ligand for HAVCR2/TIM3 and induces T-helper type 1 lymphocyte (Th1) death. In addition, Galectin-9 suppresses tumor cell metastasis by interfering with the associations CD44, VCAM-1, Integrin α4β1.

Handling information

Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100µg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Delivery condition The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below.
