anti-Galectin-1 Antibody

Galectin 1

Galaptin, Galectin1 , DKFZp686E23103

Galectins are a family of soluble β-galactoside-binding animal lectins that modulate cell-to-cell and cell-to-ECM interactions, as well as apoptosis. Galectin-1 has the ability to induce apoptosis of activated T-cells and T-leukaemia cell lines. Other activities include cell differentiation and inhibition activity of CD45 protein phosphatase activity. Galectin also binds beta-galactoside as well as CD45, CD3 and CD4. Human Galectin is a 14.5 kDa protein consisting of 134 amino acid residues.

Affinity purified

Western blot and Immunohistochemistry

Western blotting (0.5 – 2.0 µg/ml) and Immunohistochemistry (5 µg/ml). However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually.

Shelf time: 12 months in temp.: -20 deg.C

gel pack

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
